Nebraska getting contributions to facilities

Actually it was starting from scratch.

Taking over a 10-3 isnt starting from scratch.

He was taking a run oritented option team to a more balanced attack which featured actual passing plays and actual 21st century football terminology and not "option left, option right, QB keeper".

Funny, a 21st century "attack" thats rooted in the 60's.

This thread was about fund raising, not whether or not Callahan can coach, and the fund raising more likely has far more to do with people's perception of the AD than their perception of the coach.

Thats funny, because prior to this post I havent even mentioned billy c, that is the rest of you, not me.

Most of the forums I have been on would have booted you long ago. Your lucky blackshirt, eric, and the rest of the guys are really nice guys.

I guess if you like gestapo boards that censor anything that is construed to be anything less than sunshine pumping. :wacko:

So many threads have been hijacked lately by a certain someone, it's becoming annoying.

Enough. Stay on topic, folks. We would prefer to leave threads open rather than having to lock them, so please keep it on topic and no personal attacks.

 
Just out of curiosity (even though i know the answer), how many dollars have you contributed to the project FF? Putting aside tickets you bought for an NU athletic event like football, basketball..baseball..etc and Husker gear, how many dollars have you actually contributed solely for the epansion project.

No, let's not go there. It serves no purpose but to engage in the "You're not a real fan if..." debate. Let's stay on the topic.

It has nothing to do with being a real fan and more to do with someone continuing to criticize a ball club. If he has contributed to the project, what does that say about him since the guy who started the project was Steve Pederson who he (FF) flat out hates. On the other hand, if he hasn't contributed...well i will leave that up for discussion.

All of which is irrelevant to the topic.

 
We need a Boone Pickens, damnit! Like Newearth said, how come Buffett hasn't been called upon? You gotta think plenty of former Husker businessmen are wealthy(since Nebraska has the highest per capita amount of millionaires in the US). I don't have much cash to spare at this point in my life. I give all I can by purchasing a ticket, buying clothing, lending my voice on saturdays and my interest year round in the University. :restore2

I will gladly answer you in the woodshed.

 
Bill Gates stole his ideas from Steve Jobs anyway. :wacko:

Why can't Warren Buffet just donate a crap load of cash?

warren buffet probably doesnt like football. if he is going to donate anything it will probably go to creighton's overhyped basketball team(yippie :sarcasm )

 
I beleive Warren Buffet has been quoted as saying he is going to give a large chuck of his money to a single social "issue" when he dies. I'm not sure about this, but I believe I have heard this somewhere. I think Buffet is more concerned with society and what not than sports, I suppose I can see his rational, although a nice little contribution would be nice.

When Nebraska and Washington had their last home and home series Buffett and Gates had fun attending the games and had little side bets for $1.

Buffett isn't going to leave his 3 kids anything when he dies but they did each get over $300 million when their mom passed last year. Not sure what the chances any of the Nebraska universities will see any of his money when he's gone but anything would be appreciated.

 
Tomorrow I am going to the south stadium, and my roommate and i are both donating 100$. Someone from the stadium told me you get your name put up, and it is a great cause. We can't really sit here and criticize others for not donating millions. I have no money, and i am not trying to get others to feel like they are not fans if they don't donate, but this will get paid for somehow, and if all of us donate, it will help. sorry if i am stepping on toes, but lets not put a bad light on this awesome project.

awesome man. I agree with you, if we all give up a little bit, we will get the project taken care of and it will be great for the University and all of us. Can you still make donations at the spring game? If so, I think I just may.

 
you'd think boone pickens and that kind of money he could have just purchased the whole university of okie st. might be cheaper.

tell you what fellas after i win the lottery and take care of business ill drop a zillion dollars on memorial stadium. then im gonna put box seats on the east stadium and put another screen on the south side.
