Pretty sure they are eating the operational costs. Or at least it says on the 1890 website they are:
1890’s operational costs are fully funded by Tom and Shawn Peed (including all expenses related to team salaries, office space, marketing, advertising, and more) so supporters can rest assured that 100% of their contributions will go directly to Nebraska student-athletes.

Guessing it was either Essegian or Hausen as they seem to be redundant players. Sounds like the ship has sailed on Fidler.
Now its down to Kyle/Milicic. If we start hearing about new big targets this week it is probably a bad sign for those 2.

PF/C Andrew Morgan Sr NDSU
PG Rollie Worster Sr Utah
SG/SF Gavin Griffiths So Rutgers
SG Connor Essegian Jr Wisconsin
Players we are after
PF William Kyle Jr South Dakota St

Lost interest
SF Frankie Fidler Sr Omaha

Yes, I know the 1st down rule changed last year. But my points still stands.
The 2 minute warning was added in the NFL to give an advantage to a team trying to score at the end of the game by giving them an extra timeout. In college, the clock stopping on 1st downs gives the team trying to score at the end of the game an advantage by giving them extra mini-timeouts. It seems redundant to me to have both.
About time for helmet commination. But we're still going to see coaches sending in signals and those signs with symbols on the sidelines because of the amount of no huddle that CFB teams run.
2 minute warning, whatever. I don't think its needed with clocks stopping for 1st downs. And the powers that be said it won't be adding any commercial time to the games, just shifting around when the commercials happen.
Let's reformat this a bit
