I've got background I'm having to sit on for now, but it appears this was a move initiated by the school's communications office for it to take control of all athletics messaging.
It's a move that had been discussed for over a year. So while I guess COVID-19 could theoretically have been used as cost-cutting justification, it seems it had nothing to do with that.
AFAIK, Alan George is the only remaining employee from the former athletics media relations office.
There's more, but that's what I feel comfortable saying for now.
