ADRIAN Wojnarowski is leaving the industry he dominated for years.

Famous for his frequent scoops known as “Woj Bombs”, Wojnarowski is quitting broadcasting as he announced his retirement from ESPN where he worked for seven years as NBA reporter.

Wojnarowski announced that he will be joining his alma mater, St. Bonaventure, where he will occupy the newly created position of general manager of the men’s basketball program.

“I’m thrilled and humbled to return to St. Bonaventure with an opportunity to serve the university,” Wojnarowski said in a statement released by the school in Allegany, New York.

“I’m hopeful to share with members of our community some best practices learned from the most successful franchises and minds in the NBA and committed to opening doors globally for our players both on and off the court.”

With St. Bonaventure, the 55-year-old Wojnarowski will oversee a wide range of responsibilities while working alongside coach Mark Schmidt and his staff.

Wojnarowski graduated from St. Bonaventure with a journalism degree in 1991. He received an honorary doctorate from the school in 2022.

Wojnarowski has worked at ESPN since 2017. His decision to retire came while he was still under contract with the network.

Wojnarowski also previously worked at Yahoo Sports and The Record of New Jersey. He is a two-time APSE columnist of the year and was voted the National Sports Media Association’s National Sportswriter of the year over a three-year span from 2017-19.(CCM)
