Just wondering what your hearing about the Boone Pickens fiasco with the Market crash?  Sounds like a mess,  I sure hope they can find a way out of that mess.  It sounds like this could really put
OSU in a big world of hurt.

Below is a link to a Blog I read, not sure if all details are exact.

What's everyone else hearing?

The rumor on OSU boards is that the fund is back to just over $165m.  So we still have the original investment.  They have put off building the athletic village and indoor practice facility until Boone recovers.

Atleast the football team is doing well, maybe they will make some additional revenue from a good bowl game if they can beat texas

I think he's been on commcerials here promoting alternate engery?

I had to laugh. In a nationwide poll on the Ohio State vs Penn State game all the votes were in favor of Penn w/ the exception of both the OSU's.
