Sankey says SEC schools are being approached to form a PE Super Conference
Stech • 08/19/24 01:58 PM ET
Wouldn't a Super League kill the SEC and B10?
Truthahn • 08/20/24 11:33 AM ET
Reading this I keep hearing "Stay the course" from George HW Bush **
Two4VT • 08/20/24 11:04 AM ET
Didn't a "Super League" concept get rejected by fans of European Soccer?
gman86 • 08/20/24 10:18 AM ET
Actually UEFA, FIFA, and EU probably had more influence to kill the Super

Or was that just on Ted Lasso....proffered by the Nigerian billionaire.**

Looks Like Sankey Clearly Gave PE a Thumbs Down
WarHog38 • 08/19/24 04:16 PM ET
No one in a position of strength would want to have anything to do with PE
VT ChemE 1986 • 08/19/24 07:31 PM ET
PE has a reputation, for sure. Funny though, the NBA, MLB, NHL,
Big12 guy • 08/19/24 08:51 PM ET
Yeah, but those are all private institutions.

The only way I see a PE deal working is
Pylons • 08/20/24 11:20 AM ET
I'm not sure the discussions are with individual universities. Except for
Big12 guy • 08/20/24 09:42 AM ET
They are not "public" in the sense of state universities,
Pylons • 08/20/24 11:16 AM ET
We may not be talking "traditional" here. We could be talking future
Big12 guy • 08/20/24 11:54 AM ET
Yep. I posted that elsewhere.**
Pylons • 08/20/24 11:55 AM ET
I would not discount it out of hand either but
VTCALS72 • 08/20/24 07:29 AM ET
It all depends on what the PE money is used for. As an example, the
Big12 guy • 08/20/24 08:13 AM ET
PE 💵 can substantially increase Marketing, PR, NIL so that they sell it
Stech • 08/20/24 09:39 AM ET
The "it" is very different here from a normal PE deal though
Pylons • 08/20/24 11:43 AM ET
You could call it venture capital as well. It is just private money,
Big12 guy • 08/20/24 09:46 AM ET
Sankey ultimately wants control, which is understandable.**
Stech • 08/19/24 05:25 PM ET
Projections are often lies......
2hhoop3 • 08/19/24 02:33 PM ET
But not always
tarheelblue • 08/19/24 04:50 PM ET
That data was available to VT as well as Maryland.
TDVick • 08/20/24 02:39 AM ET
I did nor say always.......
2hhoop3 • 08/19/24 05:25 PM ET
Excellent point!!**
Stech • 08/19/24 05:23 PM ET
Inside99 was not my boy, but this is straight from Sankey saying they are
Stech • 08/19/24 03:06 PM ET
For the record......
2hhoop3 • 08/19/24 03:27 PM ET
I argued with Inside 99 many times, I did let him speak, sometimes the best
Stech • 08/19/24 03:38 PM ET
His agenda is the same......
2hhoop3 • 08/19/24 04:08 PM ET
Remember what’s in play right now
Marooned • 08/19/24 07:53 PM ET
Spot on, he has “an end in mind “, successful CEO’s & Owners have a vision
Stech • 08/20/24 09:25 AM ET
Sankey has learned....
2hhoop3 • 08/19/24 08:05 PM ET
Good post for the most part, no problem with you sharing my disagreements
Stech • 08/19/24 04:52 PM ET
I have seen them......
2hhoop3 • 08/19/24 05:16 PM ET
Haha always a dig at the end from you, have a great evening!! 🦃🦃🦃**
Stech • 08/19/24 05:22 PM ET
That was a statement.......
2hhoop3 • 08/19/24 05:29 PM ET
Link to a thread where you and I agree and disagree with Inside99 🔗**
Stech • 08/19/24 05:53 PM ET
Nice cherrypick........
2hhoop3 • 08/19/24 05:59 PM ET
It’s a fact in your mind only, have a great evening!**
Stech • 08/19/24 05:45 PM ET
I doubt that.......
2hhoop3 • 08/19/24 05:52 PM ET
I just gave you proof, read the thread. You are the only one saying this,
Stech • 08/19/24 05:57 PM ET
Like I said,.......
2hhoop3 • 08/19/24 06:01 PM ET
You want to fight no matter the facts, I have better things to do.**
Stech • 08/19/24 08:23 PM ET
You've got a pretty sound perspective on Sankey. He should be trusted
Big12 guy • 08/19/24 04:15 PM ET
I have heard a few times national reporters believe Sankey
HouClone • 08/19/24 06:01 PM ET
Greg Sankey could care less about the "best interest of college football."
Baltimore_Hokie • 08/20/24 10:20 AM ET
Tim Brando and to a lower level Joel Klatt
