Charlotte 49ers men’s basketball coach Alan Major returned to work Monday after a four-month medical leave of absence.
In an exclusive interview with the Observer, Major said he had operations over the summer to correct an aggressive form of glaucoma in both eyes, as well as a procedure to address an irregular heart beat.
“I’ve got to ease my way, baby-step back into things a little bit here,” said Major, 46, who is beginning his fifth season with the 49ers. “But it’s good to be back and to see everybody.”
