Introducing the Cody “Beef” Franke Scholarship Fund at Ferris State University.
Our friend Beef loved his time at the Ferris State PGA Golf Management Program. In his memory, we have worked with the university and Cody’s family to create a scholarship fund that will honor his kindness and love for the game, and will support in perpetuity students at Ferris State University, sculpting young leaders to carry themselves both professionally and personally as Beef did. With all class.
If you’re feeling generous, you can contribute a gift to the fund here: https://t.co/LW2uFNKtqX
Hats off to Beef, always.
We are beyond devastated to announce that our good friend and cherished Barstool Sports colleague, Cody “Beef” Franke, passed away from a sudden medical issue over the weekend.
It’s time. The cigarette has been lit and the Barkley 2025 is now underway!
I’m not at Frozen Head this year but will be watching via @keithdunn Twitter feed.
Remember the Barkley is invisible. You don’t see anything. This is about the runners, by themselves, against all that OUT THERE.
Testicle Spectacle, Son of a Bitch Ditch, Rat Jaw, Meth Lab Hill, Meat Grinder, Checkmate Hill, Candy Ass, Big Hell, The Bad Thing, Middle Finger Ridge.
These are places you’ll hear of but you’ll never see unless you close your eyes.
