huskerfan500 Posted October 15, 2007 Share Posted October 15, 2007 Isn't it his daughter, who also donated the O Central's new stadium Quote Link to comment
I Bleed RED Posted October 15, 2007 Author Share Posted October 15, 2007 Cook and Buffet said point blank money stops if changes aren't made. If this is fact, then why is Cook pissed off and not donating to NU anymore? Not to mention, Buffet isn't a donor either. He's got bigger fish to fry than donate to Nebraska football. He made his money by investing in struggling businesses and corporations that had good leadership and could make a return. He doesn't even donate to UNMC which is a top research university in the nation. I know because I'm a graduate student there and in research money is everything and don't think for a second the pockets of Warren Buffet haven't tried to be tapped. Cook threatened to pull money from the University. That is what I knew. Buffet threatened not to give money to the University and he never vowed money to athletics. I said threatened money. I didn't realize to what level and for what reasons. Also, I heard the Cook issue in invalid to this point. Quote Link to comment

strigori Posted October 15, 2007 Share Posted October 15, 2007 I may be wrong, but I am thinking at least one, if not more, of Warren Buffet's kids went to UNL. It may be possible that it is one of them, and they are all rather wealthy people themselves. Quote Link to comment
Skull&Bones Posted October 15, 2007 Share Posted October 15, 2007 Peterson is fired Tom Osborne is interim AD Cally will resign within 2 weeks, probably after TX They are trying to get Bo Pelini Cook and Buffet said point blank money stops if changes aren't made. Sounds like I BLEED RED is the real deal. Thanks for the info. Any guess on when they will say something about Docter Tom stepping in and stop the bleeding of our program. Keep us in the loop nobody has any reason to doubt what you say because so far it's been correct. Quote Link to comment

LJS just reported that Cook is pulling his money because SP was fired, so i dont think he treatened Pearlman Quote Link to comment
newenglandhusker Posted October 15, 2007 Share Posted October 15, 2007 There're many posters in this thread that have pointed out the inconsistencies with the Dan Cook story. He seems legitimately pissed off that the Prick is gone. But...since Pederson made the announcement on Black Friday, does that mean this is White Monday? Quote Link to comment
Pedro Guerrero Posted October 15, 2007 Share Posted October 15, 2007 Since everyone wants to really know what is going on here it is. I cannot reveal my sources but I have always stated that I have connections and my bitching was going to help. Here are the facts: Peterson is fired Tom Osborne is interim AD Cally will resign within 2 weeks, probably after TX They are trying to get Bo Pelini Cook and Buffet said point blank money stops if changes aren't made. THIS IS FROM THE SOURCE WHO WAS ACTUALLY IN THE MEETING!!!! Cally also made this announcement to some of his staff and players. Who is Peterson? I thought Cook wanted him gone per YOUR source. I heard Johnny Carson, Gerald Ford, Larry the Cable Guy, and Tommy Lee all said they weren't going to give any more money unless Pud, Cally, and Coz were fired as well as Mike Anderson and Connie Yori. Believe me this is from someone that was in the room when this whole thing went down. Quote Link to comment

I was mistaken on how I took the info. The word I got was "Cook and Buffet threatened not to give $ to NU" I assumed it meant if changes weren't made Wouldn't you make that assumption? My source was right about threatening money, I made the mistake it looks like by assuming what it meant. Everything has been correct so far hasn't it??? I broke this 2.5 hrs before it was announced.

Glendower Posted October 15, 2007 Share Posted October 15, 2007 Assuming Pelini is the #1 canidate, what are our chances of landing him after the way we Pud released him? Fixed Quote Link to comment

Husker_x Posted October 15, 2007 Share Posted October 15, 2007 Assuming Pelini is the #1 canidate, what are our chances of landing him after the way we Pud released him? Fixed Precisely. WE did jack diddly, and that was the problem from the start. Somehow this whole Fire Solich thing crippled the fanbase. Thank you, Pederson, for setting Husker football back at least four seasons. You dirty bastard. Let us hope and pray that the blood of TRUE Huskers begins pumping life back into this giant, sickly corpse. X Quote Link to comment
DaveH Posted October 16, 2007 Share Posted October 16, 2007 Cook said he pulled his money anyway. What's your source say about that? Quote Link to comment
