I'm trying to do some research on this unrivaled league. Because that's huge for someone to leave the MInnesota Lynx gm job for this job with Unrivaled. It feels like someone leaving a prominent company for a startup.

Seeing the salaries of the players and coaches, I could only imagine what an executive would make on a WNBA team. This Unrivaled thing seems to have some real juice and so I'm sure the opportunity to make more money is there.

It's backed by the former bosses of ESPN and TNT, as well as having backing from several former athletes. It's also sponsored by Ally Financial so there's clearly a plan to make the league an actual thing and not just a pet project.

It'll be interesting to see how well produced the broadcast of this league will be. If it looks like it's got money behind it and the product isn't gimmicky like the Big 3, I could see this doing very well in the current climate.

I like a team thinking outside the box cuz Smesko has been on the best coaches at the college level but damn @ leaving a team you recruited a couple weeks into the season.
