Wojnarowski's next venture will be at his alma mater, St. Bonaventure, where he'll serve as the general manager of the school's men's basketball program.
His new role will include name, image, and likeness (NIL) allocation, transfer portal management, and recruiting.
"I'm thrilled and humbled to return to St. Bonaventure with an opportunity to serve the university, coach Mark Schmidt, and our elite Atlantic 10 men's basketball program," Wojnarowski said in a statement. "In these changing times of college sports, I'm eager to join a championship program that combines high-level basketball, national television exposure, pro preparation, and NIL opportunities with an intimate, supportive educational environment."
Wojnarowski's peers voted him the National Sports Media Association's National Sportswriter of the Year in 2017, 2018, and 2019.
The Connecticut native also authored "The Miracle of St. Anthony: A Season with Coach Bob Hurley and Basketball's Most Improbable Dynasty," which was a New York Times bestseller.
