Charlotte 49ers Director of Athletics Judy Rose has announced the resignation of women's basketball coach Karen Aston effective immediately. A nationwide search for a new coach will begin immediately.

"I would like to thank Charlotte, and in particular Judy Rose and Dr. Phil Dubois for this tremendous opportunity to coach the 49ers," Aston said. "I loved my time spent here, and have some everlasting memories of Charlotte. I simply found it was time to pursue other opportunities, and more importantly, get closer to my family. Again, I am forever indebted to the people here for allowing me this opportunity and wish Charlotte continued success!"

Huh? Why would she unexpectedly resign to take a demotion and a lot less money?

Not saying its gonna happen, a guy can dream can't he?

Cool. She's actually moving back home to Arkansas (I think) to be closer to her mother. Speculation is she'll end up coaching in that area. It's a shame because she's a very good coach. I hate that Charlotte students and fans didn't support their womens team like they should have. That's why we better appreciate Bibbs while we have her!
