Broadcasting, Coaches Agent Jordan Bazant Joining WME After Leaving The Legacy Agency

Marketing, coaches and broadcast agent Jordan Bazant has left The Legacy Agency, where he was a partner, to join WME. Bazant will be based in WME's N.Y. offices. He started his new job yesterday and reports to Rick Rosen, WME partner and head of television. Bazant at WME is expected to work as a sports agent, but he also will be involved in special projects and business development across WME and IMG. It is not clear what clients, if any, will follow Bazant to WME. As a practical matter, clients usually go or stay with the agent with whom they have the closest relationship. Bazant has worked with a wide range of clients including Dolphins QB Ryan Tannehill, Bills RB Reggie Bush, Fox Sports' Troy Aikman and Rob Stone, NFL Network's Marshall Faulk and Arizona State men's basketball coach Bobby Hurley. He represents players in off-field work, as well as negotiating coaching and broadcast contracts. Bazant co-founded Goal Marketing, which was later re-named The Agency in '00. In '12, The Agency merged with Legacy Sports Group to form TLA. Prior to founding Goal Marketing, Bazant worked at the former Integrated Sports Int'l.
