The title is not the same. Renee Brown was Chief of Basketball Operations and Player Relations. I don't see a previous person with Rodriguez title listed:

http://www.wnba.com/about_us/blue_book.html

In true .com fashion, the page still has Laurel as president...

If it's not Renee Brown's old position, who is in Renee Brown's old position? Maybe the title just got a renovation.

From the Princeton Alumni Weekly (Sept. 6, 2017 edition):

https://paw.princeton.edu/article/ann-rodriguez-99-takes-new-challenges-wnba

Quote:
...As the WNBA's new senior vice president, she assigns referees, works with broadcast partners, and handles other important logistics to make sure that the season’s most pressure-packed games go off without a hitch.

"My focus really is on the playing side --- making sure that I understand the experience that our athletes are currently having and ways that we could enhance that and improve it," says Rodriguez, a veteran sports executive who has spent much of her career working in professional soccer.
