D-If the big ten gets that 2B private equity deal, is that going to set us back in terms of money to overcome?

Nope. We just need another grifter to get an 11-figure SPAC and give us the money to even the score.

If that fails, we get Nevin Shapiro and Jordan Belfort to concoct some pump-and-dump that bankrupts the UC pension so that the B1G gets the $2 billion clawed back by a federal court.

Look out for the upcoming release of the newest can’t-miss investment - “Mario CristoCoins”. It’s going to The Moon. Get
in before the rug pull they are all sold out.

Think it's safe to assume that all conferences are being evaluated by PE firms and these convos have already been ongoing with the ACC.

what the **** is this

 

[AxeThrowingInsurance]

Yea but I wonder if we could be a holding pattern, if acc is getting PE, may have a clause we can’t leave? Curious how that could throw a wrench into things

It would likely mean the B1G would be shopping for expansion teams.

Private equity is not a white knight for any issue facing college sports. @Caned Peach said it very succinctly.

Miami is home to several billionaires who OWN private equity firms, hedge funds and AMZN the company. Let’s just raise money from these guys and then buy the big 10 outright.

This is the opposite from how the deal has been reported. None ed for new teams.

PE always takes more than it gives. That’s the model for the winning returns.

Might make sense for a business that needs cash to turn the corner or cost cutting to enhance shareholder value. Makes no sense for major CFB programs/conferences.

As has already been written, community hospitals are the best comparison. PE did a great job sucking the blood out of them and destroying community health systems in the process.

Silly question - what’s to prevent an individual athletic program from cutting a similar financial deal, specifically a private university?

Think it's because of the conference grant of rights & the big bucks tv deal that comes with it
