There was a nice article in the Lincoln Star Journal last week about Bo Pelini’s Football 101 program. The charity event, put on to raise funds for cancer research, drew over 1,000 fans. The attendees raised over $40,000.
Unlike former Football 101 events, Pelini’s also allow men to attend but the majority of guests are still women.
It’s important to remember that even though football in Nebraska is important there are still other things in life. The Football 101 event is a great way for the school and community to take a step back and lend a hand to others in need while still enjoying the game of football.
Jack,
I think you will find that Bo and his coaching staff are going to make a significant impact, not just in football, but outside of football, as well. Thanks
