They are worth over 1 billion
The AD needs to move quickly. There is a lot of good will right now about CU athletics. Much easier to get donations when the AD looks as good as it does following this weekend.
Nothing is worse than black-face Vince Young running for his life.
It's like an army of creditors is behind him.

wow, didn't know it was that much. think solich sold his company for a couple billion but he pocketed a couple hundred million. so it ain't gonna be him. if it was me i'd rather be the boone of cu than shell out a hundred million to be a minority owner of an nfl team. then again, looks like he get's to be boone with a few mil. i'd be kinda pissed if i was the crocs guy.
solich with a group
So what you are saying is Solich is going to purchase the broncos... to use revenue to fund CU athletics. Genius!

The Broncos are going for over a $1 billion IMO, not sure how much Solich is worth. Look how much the Texans went for as an expansion in 2000.

Hadn't see these before, but what I dislike about the Nat ones is the many arms. Atleast these have color.Not even close.

Or he could what Steve Bisciotti, Stephen Ross, Ted Leonsis, and Stan Kroenke(with the Rams) have done -- buy a minority share and parlay that into majority ownership when the time comes. Even for the richest people in the world, there's only 120 opportunities to be a principal owner of a sports team. And leagues usually prefer, that the owner is a local.
Pat Bowlen probably needs to sell the Broncos. He isn't well. Time to cash the check, Pat.
I'd be kind of bummed if Solich was the new guy, though. I would prefer he put his money into the CU program, but it's his money. He can do with it as he pleases. I think I heard somewhere that he still has another oil company to sell, so that may be worth another Billion or two.

I don't know if he can afford it, but I guarantee Elway gets the first right of refusal if/when Bowlen sells the team.

Does Elway have enough money for majority ownership? He'd have to find some absentee owner like the situation Nolan Ryan had (which didn't ultimately work).

Elway does not have deep enough pockets
I saw one estimate of his worth at 45 M. Not even close.
Poors?
I'm really confused (shuddup!). So, apparently we announced some sort of ground breaking in the summer. Now, the start of new facility construction, to me, would, normally, get some excitement going. But since that "announcement" a couple of weeks ago, I've heard nothing. I mean, shouldn't this be a big deal? Or did George just make the announcement to fulfill the stipulation in Mac's contract?
Or once they hire a design team and can get some renderings out there.
Yeah, forgot about this part.
He did lose money in that ponzi scheme a few years ago.
And a divorce, unless that's what you meant.
