Or maybe ESPN has become a shell of itself and actually reporting news is not their priority anymore.The craziest thing to me (a fellow St. Bonaventure Bonnie) is that HOW does this happen?
There's zero chance St. Bona has the audacity to offer him the position. Dude was making $7 million a year on a 5-year contract with $21 million left.
St. Bona's entire athletics budget is $16.5 million. So they're not like "making a competitive offer" to Woj.
The only way this happens is if the AD/Coach at Bona called Woj and said "We're creating this position. You know anyone who'd be good?" and he said "yeah, me."
Which means they must have said "You want to take a 97% pay-cut to be our GM?" and he said "Yes. I do." And honestly, the proper response to that for the Bonnies really should be "if you're willing to part with $21 million over the next three years, why don't you stay at ESPN and just donate your salary to us?"
