Joni Taylor aces Texas A&M introduction with flying colors
Georgia head coach Joni Taylor watches from the sideline in the second half of an NCAA college basketball game against Alabama at the women's Southeastern Conference tournament Thursday, March 3, 2022, in Nashville, Tenn. COLLEGE STATION — Joni Taylor had a question of her own for reporters Thursday — one immediately endearing her to Aggies across the land.
“When you come to College Station and I’ve been on the opposing sideline, the atmosphere and the experience here is something I’ve always appreciated and admired,” Taylor said. “The history and the product that’s on the floor — it’s always something I’ve kept an eye on. … This was an opportunity I didn’t think I could pass up.
“It’s an honor that I’m in the position to be at an institution that had a legend, and I have an opportunity to follow behind and learn from and continue to enhance what was created here,” Taylor said. “That has been my experience — and that is what I want to do. “Darius has found his niche in terms of being in a front office; it’s something he really enjoys doing,” Taylor said when asked about her husband’s future. “It also allows us to balance our family really well. When my season ends, his season starts.”
A&M athletic director Ross Bjork declined to release specifics of Taylor’s contract, adding that it should receive A&M regents’ approval in May, but she’s expected to earn more than $1 million annually. She makes $850,000 annually at Georgia, according to the Atlanta Journal-Constitution.
