Ohio’s Endowment tops $1Billion

I just noticed that online sources are saying that Ohio’s endowment is now over $1Billion. I’m not sure what that means for athletics but it’s a nice number to reach.

Must have been a fairly recent big donation. The last I saw we were sitting at about $790 million.

I've long viewed hitting $1 Billion as a long term goal. The question I think is what is the next target for the university. Federal grant space is too crowded and has a poor outlook in this political climate. NIL and player settlements act as a counterweight for continued spending on athletic facilities.
