Marcum OK with change in power structure
Some interesting news, not sure yet what it means. The Storm has hired Jim Borghesi as its President and Chief Operating Officer. Borghesi doesn't appear to have any professional sports experience. The team says he has spent 30 years in the auto industry. Currently, he lives in New Jersey.
The interesting part is that the Storm suddenly has a front office. Under previous majority owner Woody Kern, coach and general manager Tim Marcum was the only on-site executive (Kern commuted from his native Texas for games).
I talked to owner Robert Nucci briefly earlier this evening. He said the new President and COO would focus on the business side of things, while Marcum would continue to handle the football side. Marcum said he was OK with this arrangement.
More on Borghesi as we get it.
