UNMC vs Nebraska Medicine. Anyone know what the hell is going on?

This is accurate from what I've understood for a few years. This is when the buzz started that the B1G told Nebraska to start winning in football and figure out how to regain entry into the AAU. Apparently Dr. Gold has the cache and respect to potentially pull it off.
Gold is worth his weight in diamonds not gold. Really great leader and scientist.
 
UNMC is under the Nebraska System, or I'm reading this wrong...

Governance
UNMC is one of four University of Nebraska campuses, along with the University of Nebraska-Lincoln, the University of Nebraska Omaha and the University of Nebraska at Kearney. The Board of Regents consists of eight voting members elected by district for six-year terms. The Board also includes a non-voting student Regent from each NU campus. The Board of Regents supervises the general operations of the university, as well as controls and directs all expenditures.

The board appoints the University of Nebraska president, who serves as the chief executive. Jeffrey P. Gold, M.D., the ninth NU president, reports to the Board. Each campus chancellor reports to the president.

Reaching New Levels of Excellence
Founded in 1869 and chartered as the state’s first medical college in 1881, we became part of the University of Nebraska in 1902. Today, our education programs train more health professionals than any other institution in the state.

Our scientists and clinicians are at the leading edge of discovering new medical breakthroughs, transforming lives across the state and around the world.

Yes, UNMC is part of the University of Nebraska system (like UNK and UNO are). What he means is they are merging UNMC and the University of Nebraska-Lincoln. It is UNL that is trying to get back into the AAU, not the whole NU system, so the MC needs to be affiliated with Lincoln to do so.
 
Erm… one of these things is not like the others.
Yeah I know, I always have a problem figuring out where Wayne is now in reference to the UN system. I should have just checked and I didn't ....... mea culpa..

Sorry I Apologize GIF
