John Goff and Dean Lillian Mills show their best hook ’em during the naming ceremony for the John Goff Real Estate Investment Fund and Labs.
On Tuesday, November 15, 2022, McCombs School of Business dedicated the John Goff Real Estate Investment Fund and Labs in recognition of the continuing and impactful support of John Goff, BBA ’77, Chairman of Goff Capital Management, LP, and member of the Fund Advisory Board.
Texas McCombs is the only program in the country where students evaluate both public and private investment opportunities, with MBAs as associates and undergrads as analysts. Goff helped to cast the vision and carry it out to fruition.
The celebration took place in the Rowling Hall atrium on The University of Texas campus with a champagne toast reception after the annual Real Estate Investment dinner. Attendees included Cami and John Goff, members of their family, President Jay Hartzell, Dean Lillian Mills and Real Estate advisory board members, McCombs faculty, staff and students.
During his toast, President Hartzell described Goff as “the most shrewd real estate investor” he knew.

“I love this program and what it does for our students,” Hartzell said.
As he took the podium to thank the crowd of students, staff, faculty and family in attendance, Goff said he was touched by the recognition.
“I can’t tell you how much it means to me to talk to the students and hear what a difference this program is making for you,” he said. “It’s a phenomenal program, really unique, and I couldn’t be more excited to be part of it.”
The John Goff Real Estate Investment Fund and Labs is located on the first floor of Rowling Hall.
