Then what? What can happen? Does LU owe someone money? Does someone owe LU money? Would Jerry be facing charges? I know this depends on what they find, but I don't see what LU next move is since they've already bounced Jr and the deals are all closed.https://nonprofitrisk.org/resources/art ... ly-trying/
Will it actually happen? No.
But the sort of mess that those deals can cause will not be easily worked through.

He just announced his intent to seek re-election, so if he can have his way with Jerry it would do him some good in the court of public opinion. I can't stand the guy, well either of the two named actually, but this wouldn't be a bad play to make for someone in his position.

I think it’s safe to say Jerry will work through him if he’s left in power.If Jr. really cared about the many extended family members and in-laws still having jobs he is doing the exact opposite of anything that could help them. I understand some of the extended in-laws are legit.

No reason really.Have met him a few times in Jr's suite, don't really know him. He is a blue collar worker and probably earns his salary, unlike some. Seems to be a reasonable humble guy as well. I do feel bad for him.

I can not pretend to be familiar with the legal side of things. I know it isn't good though.Every college worth anything owns things--from acres of timber land to start-ups. It is not illegal at all. You just have to pay regular taxes on it as unrelated business income.
Also,at Jr threatening the media. Comical stuff.

I hope the complete the project as a signal of faith in LYH.El Scorcho wrote: ↑September 4th, 2020, 2:44 pmDidn't even think about this possibility but you're right.

What I've read so far is going nowhere. Would have to be something new.Pretty soon you’ll be the ballcoach “Junior did nothing wrong and the BoT acted rashly” Camp

Also the investigation's fact gathering and findings will become discoverable in this type of litigation. Its also concerning the the forensic firm has not been named. Our board is loaded with SBC'ers - SBC is group that has a horrific track record of transparency for conduct by leaders involved with financial/sexual issues so I'm expecting to be disappointed by the investigation.

I have equal disdain for those who question my Christianity for voting for Trump and for those who question others Christianity for not voting for Trump.gerb wrote: ↑September 4th, 2020, 3:06 pm100%.

I do hope for something positive out of the investigation, but I am ye of little faith.
