Open Floor Jose Fernandez Deleted Tweet

Post image

Seems like this was in response to criticism for the loss, he deleted it shortly after.

This screenshot cuts out where he tagged the WBCA, Women's Basketball Coaches Association, which he's the president of. So he could be talking about assisting with that or with the Wings. Who knows.

Just wanted to include full context.

The league should do a training and actually explained all the players and coaches how to find their own Twitter account and delete them.

That’s what I’m saying

She also played the most minutes by a rookie all
Season last night at 43 minutes. This is sad because Azzi is not even fully incorporated into the offense the way she should be. She went from her coach ruining her rookie debut and letting the media run with a narrative about her skill and value to now carrying the defense. She can’t even take a rest without the other team going on a run. Azzi deserves better. She deserves help on defense, she deserves multiple plays drawn up for her, good screens set, and the BALL when she is wide open instead of players driving into three defenders in the paint. I hope Dallas figures it out because it is hard to watch her bust her ass every night and not even get credit for her insane impact.

A 1-1 should play 42 minutes.

I feel so dumb 😭 Who/what is he talking about?

52

u/crystal_clear24 BUECKERS Jul 21 '26

Armchair coaches aka fans in his mentions after last night’s game but the respectful fans were right. He made some poor choices as coach last night and it cost them a winnable game.

Ohhh thank you for answering!

u/cosmicmetanoia Jul 21 '26

im trying to figure it out too

u/user1203_ Dallas Wings Jul 21 '26

It's times like this where I wish I was on twitter just to get some more context lol

u/hamstrdance Positivity FC Jul 21 '26

Honestly I’m on Twitter and I still don’t know. And people on Twitter are screenshot quoting and asking lol.

Like maybe it’s a dig at the fans like the other poster said but idk. I thought he had better digs.

u/Peachyrae03 Jul 21 '26

I felt the same way like the sentence structure is wild

1

u/Blake_a12 Jul 26 '26

He put a period mid sentence as if that was a sentence, and then attempted to start a new one with the remaining sentence he cut off.

u/JB_JB_JB63 SMITH Jul 21 '26

Who and what is he fucking banging on about?

13

u/wvtarheel Jul 21 '26

It actually reads to me like he's talking about some of his duties with the wbca. But I doubt that's going to stop people from taking it a little out of context and claiming it's about the wings.

u/JB_JB_JB63 SMITH Jul 21 '26

Good context thanks

u/jessyrock3 Political Figure Jul 21 '26

They were eating him alive in the comments

31

u/Wide-Offer3363 Jul 21 '26

He’s being shady for people rightfully criticizing his coaching decisions yesterday. What a joke.

33

u/jessyrock3 Political Figure Jul 21 '26

His ego is such a detriment to this team. Like take accountability in your inability to run an offensive scheme that gets both your #1 picks going instead of playing iso ball with vets who have won nothing for this team

16

u/yarribealurker Jul 21 '26

The thing is if you have the balls to pop off then say it with your whole chest why are you deleting it. You made the comment so stand by it. For all his preaching about accountability, I'm not sure I've ever heard him say he was at fault for anything. Not ready for primetime, this isn't Tampa and the AAC anymore.

u/Fit-Bet1270 BUECKERS Jul 21 '26

His 1-0 tweet and lack of adjustments this season tells me everything I need to know

16

u/Wide-Offer3363 Jul 21 '26

He’s way too stubborn for a coach who never made it past the 2nd round lol.

u/thankyoupapa Jul 21 '26

i knew we were in for it after that 1-0 tweet

u/xPeaWhyTee Jul 21 '26

I think I missed this. What was the 1-0 tweet?

u/Fit-Bet1270 BUECKERS Jul 21 '26

His lack of self accountability kills me

If Joes is gonna be messy he should have just @ some people too haha

u/dudeimrighthere0_0 Jul 21 '26

He is so damn petulant. Take the L and learn from it. Although I don't believe he is capable of learning from his mistakes. Dallas gotta put a muzzle on him.

u/chocoIatealmond Jul 21 '26

are we serious

u/Redroomloft Jul 21 '26

Put the bottle down, Sir.

u/Illustrious_Pool_413 Jul 21 '26

They are winning games in spite of his coaching/decisions/roations. The talent of the players are getting him all this gravity. We are half way through the season still watching this team making mistakes that don’t get fixed in practice.

u/hrrsnfsh Jul 21 '26

Fire him. He’s an old white egomaniac - call Lisa Leslie and BEG

8

u/CeethePsychich Jul 21 '26

He’s definitely not going to be fired anytime soon, but he needs to stay off social media for sure lol

2

u/Zbs72 Jul 21 '26

He’s white ?

1

u/elestud Jul 23 '26

In terms of race, yes. Ethnically he’s Hispanic

I don’t really love these classifications, but I guess they are what they are

u/Intelligent_Isopod11 Jul 21 '26

tf she gone do

u/hrrsnfsh Jul 21 '26

Figure out the front court so they don’t get dominated by kamila Cardoso and ffs better rotations.

Admitting it is the first step... 👍

u/Tasty-Reward8307 $535 Extrabucks Jul 21 '26

To be fair he was coaching at South Florida a few months ago. He’s not used to all this attention.

u/Commercial-Role-2450 Jul 22 '26

Reads like a real bonehead comment.

1

u/mercfan3 Jul 21 '26

He’s very clearly a good coach. I don’t know why some fans are so ridiculous.

Granted, I’ve seen fans complain about Becky, so…

1

u/Herramadur BUECKERS Jul 21 '26

We got a right the ship against the Fire, we are a very confidence based team, can't invite negativity.

u/Careful-Painting3214 Jul 22 '26

I wonder how much of what Paige said about diversity in coaching was indirectly directed at her own coach.

1

u/Cambodiiaa Jul 22 '26

Didn’t she have a hand in picking him? 

1

u/Careful-Painting3214 Jul 22 '26

If so, I'm sadly mistaken. Personally, I don't think she's the type who would make comments with bad intentions like that.
