even if you are successful as UW…what keeps him from saying he’s hurt or worse yet being a locker room cancer and on field liability?

I get sending the tampering message to other leagues but practically you’ve got limited upside here. None really.

Yep in fact it was from a university system investment fund in fact heavily disincentivizes that. Let alone the structure gave them not a voting interest which basically meant there was no mechanism to do so.

Exactly. The were in line to be a financial sponsor not an operating one. They had a profits interest in a separate company. Zero recourse to any university assets.

Well as we went through many times, that’s like saying they are scared of the monster under the bed.

The proposed structure simply didn’t feed into that narrative at all.

Everyone as in fans mostly. It's people associate private equity with fucking shit up in the name of profits. Doesn't have to be but most people have a negative connotation of PE where they core out an out a thing and leave a rotting shell in the name of profits.

Could be but it doesn’t have to be that exact set up.

Define “everyone” though. If you mean the message boards then whatever, from what I saw of the comments 99% of the haters don’t really understand it. If you mean the schools, then it’s tbd. They had a very specific objection that can be worked on.
