The Saudi fund is about more than just diversifying assets - it's a massive world-wide PR campaign for one of the world's most evil regimes.

No, it’s not the same at all.

The B1G and its member institutions are non-profits. There are no owners to take distributions, and a good board doesn’t just let NFP execs do whatever the hell they want to maximize salaries.

This is just what college football needs in order to be completely ruined: private equity, the bane of modernity.

Ohio St fans in a few years when people don’t give a shite about college sports anymore:
You guys sound like Al Gore with your demise of college football rhetoric. Every time it doesn't happen, you push the timeline back, rinse and repeat.

Michigan and OSU win titles back to back and they think the big10 is the new premier football powerhouse. The SEC will win the title again this year and order restored and these insufferable OSU fans will stop beating their chests so much. Clowns.
Oh, the irony of this.
