Woj Bomb-Quitting ESPN

I've always blamed Wetzel

Btw, re Nate Miles, all those headaches for this:

I know we say everyone hates us, but Woj really didn't like Calhoun.

Complete opposite with Hurley
 
He used to cover the Jaycee-Courant League beat.
Whatever happened to Jaycee-Courant? Is it still around? We used to watch those games and Hartford Twilight league games in Hartford years ago. Looks like Twilight League is still around.

Almost all youth baseball has disappeared after little league. AAU is the big thing.
 
Yup.

I remember when this came out and someone said Woj vowed to get Calhoun back because of how he treated him while covering UConn. Don't know if that was just fan fiction but Woj contributing to this expose when he was already an NBA insider at that point and Miles wasn't even on the NBA radar would lend some credence to there being some bad blood between the two of them.

If JC didn’t like him, then I don’t like him

Think Woj ultimately tired of the illusion of amateur sports and NCAA rules and said f it , let me cover the NBA where getting paid isn’t cheating.

Seems he made the right decision.

Woj and Wetzel were doing data based reporting back then. Man, I remember that story. Broke when I was on the desk and half our team was out at the final four. Lucky Miles never played here.
 
Woj is an extremely cutthroat and spiteful dude. The whole industry is silly. Breaking news 30 seconds before it would have been widely known, what a talent. There was a big profile on Shams a few years ago and the day to day existence seems absolutely miserable. Cool that he gets to spend his time now with his family and supporting an institution he loves.
 
Good luck to Woj as I really liked his NBA coverage, but his job must have totally consumed his life. Although he supposedly had 3 years remaining on his contract, I wonder if he is leaving on his terms and building a new career as I would bet cost cutting ESPN would not renew his contract for $7 million per year.

Woj was writing opinion based columns then, and that story broke before the Sweet 16 game vs Purdue
 
Can ESPN put that new found money toward UConn while getting them into the ACC and making it "revenue neutral"?
 
went back down the Nate Miles rabbit hole and I see there's a 4 star 2026 recruit from Ohio named Nate Miles III that looks just like him, I'm assuming that's his son

Yep, it's his son. He has some Midwest mid-major offers. Looks like his dad facially but very different body type.

Wish there wasn't all that stuff surrounding his dad because we would've won it all with Nate Miles that season. I also hate that he never was able to fulfill his basketball career.
