After an extensive review of the Charlotte football program by Director of Athletics Mike Hill, head football coach Biff Poggi has been relieved of his duties.

A national search for the next leader of the 49ers will begin immediately. Associate head coach Tim Brewster will serve as the 49ers interim head coach for the remaining two games of the 2024 season.

Hill and Brewster will be available during the program's regularly scheduled weekly press conference on Tuesday at 11:30 a.m. inside the Judy Rose Center.

"I am thankful to Biff Poggi for his leadership and mentorship of our student-athletes over these past two seasons," Hill said. "No one can question Biff's passion for helping young people succeed in life, both personally and professionally, but our on-field results have unfortunately fallen short of everyone's expectations. As we move forward into the next chapter of Charlotte 49er Football, we will be looking for a leader to take our program to the next level as a consistent bowl and championship contender."

Charlotte travels to Florida Atlantic on Saturday before a senior day finale against UAB on November 30 at 3:30 p.m. from Jerry Richardson Stadium.
