Just heard from a person that would definitely be "in the know" that the Raikes family "pulled their funding" on Monday. No idea what that means to the CBA going forward, but that's a big deal. I'll keep digging in hopes of adding an "Insideher" badge to the resume.

Which means somebody else may step up. Don't give Tetonia on Inside Nebraska any ammo.

Or maybe it's not related to Gold's hiring?

I am not the douche waffle leaker. This is also my first post so I don't get removed for being a lurker and not a poster and accused of being the douche waffle leaker.

Also, yay for DaNNeN and Gold! #GBR
Congrats on not being the douche waffle leaker!

Well Done Yes GIF

CBA = College of Business Administration

Jeff is a native Nebraskan that did VERY well during his career at Microsoft and has been a generous contributor to UNL. The school of Computer Science and Management bears his name based upon the largesse of his financial commitment to the University. Losing that funding would be a blow.

Any assumptions as to why they would have pulled funding? and would the Gold hire bring them back into the fold?

Sorry if this has already been covered somewhere. I'm late to things and trying to sort out today's news.

Probably a direct correlation to my rant.

Frost doing blow off cocktail waitresses while also having sex with cocktail waitresses while also playing golden tee definitely happened and on that point I am not negotiable
TBH, that just makes that Golden Tee record he set all that more impressive.
