In this article
No reputable outlet has published an estimate of Brock Berglund's net worth. Earlier versions of this page described him as a star professional footballer earning $80 million a year; that was false. Berglund is a former college quarterback from Colorado who played at Kansas and North Texas without starting a major-college game, and who now works in real estate finance in Santa Barbara, California, where he is linked to the firm Thyne Berglund & Co. and to Eminence Ventures LLC.
What is Brock Berglund's net worth?
There is no figure from Forbes, Bloomberg, Celebrity Net Worth or a major newspaper. His businesses are private companies that do not publish accounts. A 2026 promotional profile in the San Francisco Examiner's paid Marketplace section says he has managed a real estate portfolio of more than $100 million in assets (SF Examiner Marketplace), but managing assets is not the same as owning them, and the claim comes from sponsored content rather than independent reporting. For those reasons this page does not give a number.

Football career
Valor Christian and recruiting
Berglund, from Highlands Ranch in the Denver area, played quarterback at Valor Christian High School. When he signed with Kansas in January 2011, he was a three-star prospect ranked by Rivals as the 13th-best dual-threat quarterback in the country (KUsports.com). He had earlier been committed to Colorado. Kansas coach Turner Gill praised his leadership, and Berglund signed a financial-aid agreement early so he could start classes in January and compete in spring practice with the 2010 starters, Jordan Webb and Quinn Mecham. At 6 feet 4 and 215 pounds he was the tallest quarterback on the roster, and his high school ran a version of the Kansas offense, which he said made learning the playbook mostly a matter of new vocabulary. The Journal-World later noted he became best known at Kansas for a quote comparing himself to Peyton Manning, Tim Tebow and Michael Vick combined. The promotional profile says he was Colorado's Class 4A Player of the Year and led Valor Christian to back-to-back state titles.
Kansas, Scottsdale and North Texas
Berglund enrolled early at Kansas but left the program in January 2012, after the firing of coach Turner Gill and a legal matter from back home in Colorado, the Lawrence Journal-World reported. He planned to transfer to a Pac-12 school, but a shortfall of two academic credits left him ineligible for a Division I transfer that fall; he blamed the university, which disputed his account (Denver Post).
He briefly enrolled at Scottsdale Community College in Arizona, then transferred to North Texas, where he sat out 2012 under NCAA rules and was the third-string quarterback in 2013 without throwing a pass. North Texas listed him at 6 feet 4 and 213 pounds (North Texas roster). In January 2014 he left to look for playing time at a fourth school, with North Texas' coach suggesting Northern Colorado as a possible destination, according to the Journal-World.

Business career
Eminence Ventures
Nevada business records summarized by Bizapedia show Eminence Ventures LLC, formed in Henderson, Nevada, with Berglund as its sole principal and manager, as of a January 2021 filing. He has described himself online as its managing partner. The company's activities, investments and size are not public, and no press coverage of its deals was found for this update.
Thyne Berglund & Co.
In Santa Barbara, Berglund works at Thyne Berglund & Co., which the Marketplace profile says handles acquisitions, financing, asset management, and foreclosure and loan workout deals. Public notices confirm the firm's role in that business: Thyne Berglund & Co. appears as the trustee in California trustee-sale notices published in the Santa Barbara Independent in 2026, which is the process lenders use to sell property after a loan default. The profile also says he coaches as offensive coordinator at Santa Barbara High School.
Personal life
Earlier versions of this page named a wife, gave a height of 5 feet 8 and a weight, and said he had won major trophies with big clubs. None of that is supported by a reliable source, and his college roster listing contradicts the height. Those claims have been removed.

Why there is no figure
Private real estate lending and asset management can be lucrative, but the income goes to private companies whose ownership and profits are not reported. The only dollar figure attached to Berglund comes from a paid profile. Until a reputable publisher reports one, his net worth is unknown.
