Woj’s Next Chapter: Why the Preeminent NBA News Breaker Walked Away

The biggest media story in 2024 was Adrian Wojnarowski leaving his lucrative job at ESPN to go back to St. Bonaventure as the men’s basketball general manager.

Very well written article.

What struck me is how few people actually went to Chris Mortenson's funeral (he was a 30+ year ESPN guy). Puts things into the proper perspective that, in the end, the job just don't care about you anyways. It's all about Family and Friends.

I learned the hard way that people you work for don’t care about you even though they act like they are your best friend

Anyone who has had an all consuming job that they did for the love of it can empathize what Woj went through. Love when he was told he could “ only” make $50k, and thought “where do I sign?”

Awesome article. Love Woj. Love that he loves Olean and Bonnies. Hope he’s happy, nothing worse than being unhappy what you every day.

Wojnarowski can suck it. He and Dan Wetzel tried to destroy Uconn basketball, with faulty reporting, assumptions, innuendo and just bad journalism. The few things they reported correctly didnt amount to anything.
