The Church is very concerned about optics, tithing or otherwise.

Read Pres. Eyring's biography and what he says about sports at church schools

If past history is any indicator, I predict life support levels only.

There has to be value. Ricks and BYU Hawaii athletics come to mind?

I wish they would. Soooo much money just sitting there. Wish we had access to it.

Why do that when they could give it to the U of U law school?

Portion out some of the $$ from the for profit businesses the Church owns. At least in that case you can

I didn’t pay attention, because I’m not local. Was there blowback from City

The Church used tithing funds, but "categorized" them for this kind of use. At least that was my understanding...

ocmyhome

11/19/17 10:47am

And people didn’t like the use of tithing funds to protect and revitalize

It comes up frequently in certain ex and anti circles

I would rather them recruit nationally respected business people with sport backgrounds (IE Mitt Romney, Dave Checketts)

Rhino84

11/19/17 12:00pm

That’s quite possibly how they would do it.By“invest” I don’t mean only $$

the biggest problem facing BYU sports is a boycott against the LDS church

Our Prop 8 spotlight came at a terrible time for a Pac bid.
