Future of College Sports

I was good with this list until this:
David Blitzer Blackstone co-head of private equity
Get him out of their an anything to do with private equity
He may be on there not in his role in private equity but as a co-owner of a number of professional sports teams (e.g., 76ers, Devils I think) just like Jonathan Kraft is.

so-called private equity tried once, and that even turned into becoming the California Retirement System (or something like that), and was not successful. I haven't seen any discussion of it since UM and USC blocked the potential B1G fiasco. I think there's a lot to fix in college sports before private equity comes up again. Hopefully.

Not saying you were advocating for or against it, but college sports is already a disaster. Nothing could be worse than adding private equity. PE is good for equity partners. That's it. Everyone else suffers as they strip out value and enrich themselves.
 
It should be a year suspension for the head coach and 100 percent loss of revenue. That would stop the issue. Schools may be willing to suffer 20 percent for the right player (Miami)
Good luck with that especially the Blue Bloods. The NCAA would just turn the other cheek like they did years ago.

100% I work in IT and one of clients was bought up by PE. They merged them two other small companies that do the same in year one. Year they closed 3 locations and made their IT department got costs by 75%. We had 4 people supporting them in variuos IT roles and are down to 1 helping.
PE sucks.
