Pablum. Very disappointed in the lack of detail in Slade's presentation.

One shocking fact: Nearly 8 months into our capital campaign for football - after all serious donors undoubtedly have been courted - Donny Harrison's $2 million commitment has attracted only $500k in additional funds. We can't do anything meaningful for less than $20M. I've heard that Donny is very disappointed.

Also disappointing was the lack of substantive questions from BOT members, particularly Bob Wolfinger, who is highly engaged with Ohio Athletics. Not a single question about how we are positioned vs. peer institutions to handle NIL and revenue sharing. No discussion of competitive disadvantages (facilities/funding). Nada.

I'll say it again - the administration does not care about sports. They care about academics (good) and profit. They care about football inasmuch as it provides profit. Everyone else? Good luck to ya, because you're not even an afterthought. More like a nuisance.

This might have been true about some past administrations. I don't think it's true of the current one.

Is a BOT meeting really a place where a tough question is going to be asked?

These don't seem to be hard questions; they're obvious ones. If we can't answer them in a public forum, we're farther behind than I thought.
