EXCLUSIVE: Four years ago, the NFL pledged $7 million to non-profits as part of Deshaun Watson’s suspension.
But that money didn't all go to outside charities.
Instead, the league steered some of the money back to itself to pay for its own internal "training."

The Texas "Bevo Labs" thing is just Texas finding a way to sell sponsorships for doing what everyone else is doing. This is an underrated thing every time you see some CFB team hire a Superexpert of Artificial Intelligence. It is pretty smart to get paid for having your analysts in Claude Code etc
Which we may dive into next week although it’s complicated because there’s a lot of research it’s probably being used for, not just admins / teachers etc

A thing I learned in reporting this is that the BCS told Congress it released publicly available audits of its finances.
I've never seen one, and I bet you haven't either.
But we need to demand that exact same transparency from the CFP before it charges forward.

The answer is something we've forgotten after we got a playoff as a treat. It's still a cartel, with the exact same antitrust concerns as the BCS.
It knows it, and it's still working to protect itself. And as it tries to expand, we shouldn't let it forget that.

The CFP describes itself as a non-entity, a pass-through that only implements the desires of its members, college football's conferences.
So why in the heck has it spent $5 million lobbying Congress?
