ESPN’s basketball insider Adrian Wojnarowski has dropped what must be the biggest Woj Bomb of his career, as he’s leaving The Worldwide Leader in Sports for an entirely new career.
Woj, who is responsible for breaking some of the biggest developments in basketball history, informed ESPN that he has agreed to become the general manager of the St. Bonaventure men’s basketball program.
The 55-year-old has strong links to the school as he is an alumnus and has been instrumental in raising funds for its collective over the past few years. He graduated from the Western New York institution in 1991.
“It is a thrill of a lifetime to be able to return to a university and community that I love in a role of service to our student-athletes, coaches and institution,” he told the network. “I am hopeful that I can bring value in a lot of areas to our basketball program and open doors for our young men’s futures in ways both professionally and personally.
“I am retiring from a dream job at ESPN and am so incredibly grateful for my time and experiences with the World Wide Leader.”
Adrian Wojnarowski Will Be Missed
Wojnarowski joined ESPN in 2017 after a stint with Yahoo Sports and has been one of the most popular basketball journalists for even longer, given his knack for getting the big scoop. He is only rivaled by The Athletic’s Shams Charania, who is now considered a rival following what used to be a great working relationship.
“Woj is the perfect person to fill this new role, combining his intimate knowledge of St. Bonaventure and our Franciscan values with a deep network of relationships he has built across the worlds of professional and intercollegiate basketball,” Bob Beretta, the school’s athletic director, was quoted as saying.
“The fact that the preeminent journalist in his field is willing to walk away from a lucrative media career to serve his alma mater in a support role is a testament to his love and passion for Bona’s.”
While he will definitely be missed, we imagine that Woj’s fans will be wishing him well.
All the best, Woj!
