Gonna be really hard to claim you’re a non profit, educational enterprise when taking investment
from a profit-seeking entity.  Previous Message The conference’s quest to strike a $2.4 billion deal with a California pension fund was officially paused on Monday while it waits for “unity” among the 18 schools in the league. While the deal would have infused significant amounts of money into Big Ten athletic departments, both Michigan and USC had opposed the deal. UC Investments is the group behind the deal, and it is tied to the pension fund of the University of California system. In exchange for the $2.4 billion, UC Investments would have received a 10% stake in Big Ten Enterprises — a proposed new entity that would house all of the league’s media rights and sponsorship deals. https://sports.yahoo.com/college-football/breaking-news/article/big-tens-24-billion-private-capital-plan-paused-after-michigan-usc-opposition-235704065.html
