The Dallas Wings are expected to hire longtime South Florida coach Jose Fernandez as their next head coach, per ESPN. 🏀⁣
⁣
Fernandez reportedly informed USF that he’s leaving after 25 years, a tenure that included 10 NCAA tournament appearances and over 480 wins, to take on his first WNBA role. 🔥⁣
⁣
He’ll become the Wings’ fifth head coach in seven seasons as Dallas looks to build a contender around rising star Paige Bueckers. 💪⁣
⁣
Fernandez joins newly hired WNBA coaches Alex Sarama (Portland Fire) and Sandy Brondello (Toronto Tempo) ahead of the 2026 season. 👀⁣
⁣
Welcome to the league, Jose! 🤝 #thegist⁣
