With Michigan and USC still strongly opposed, the Big Ten private capital deal appears to be - at least temporarily - paused.
UC investments CIO releases a statement expressing that 18 institutions is best path for a Big Ten private capital deal. This appears to be a pause until all 18 schools are on board. “The unity of the 18 Big Ten University members is key to the success of Big Ten Enterprises.”

Great story
New story: What's it like to coach a team that is allegedly shaving points? "Heartbreaking." Stacy Hollowell endured a season from hell at New Orleans professionally and personally, with his wife battling cancer. He's come out the other side with hope. https://t.co/zwPXS1cAJR

Good luck Minnesota United fans
MLS is officially switching to a fall-to-spring calendar beginning in 2027. That transition period from the current structure is a quick turnaround. From colleague @lizzy_becherano: https://t.co/Ca4kjw2dhj
