If you only know Adrian Wojnarowski as an NBA insider, Twitter newsbreaker, draft pick revealer and ESPN personality, then his final Woj Bomb — as his true but out-of-nowhere reports became famously known — may not make any sense.

Wednesday morning, Wojnarowski, 55, tweeted out that he was retiring from sports journalism, walking away from a lucrative and powerful spot at ESPN as the most powerful and famous reporter in the NBA.

The chaser: he is leaving to become the general manager of his beloved alma mater, St. Bonaventure University. There he will lead the recruiting and NIL efforts to help his good friend coach Mark Schmidt keep the proud Bonnie program relevant and eventually return to the NCAA Tournament.
