We just have a difference of opinion.'' Hethcock, citing personnel confidentiality, declined comment on the reasons behind Moore's resignation. ``We're looking forward to the future of the program, and we're currently accepting applications and feel confident we'll have a quality coach in place soon,'' Hethcock said.
