As a Miami guy, both our programs have been going through some tough times for over 20 years ! Keep ya heads up and look at this as the turning page you guys needed! Things down here started changing for the good now after we got rid of our AD 2 years ago!
Miami and NU are both on an upward trajectory. It just don't seem right with those two in the shitter.
Sometimes it takes a traumatic event like this for people to realize the root cause of the problem. I've lost count of the number of Presidents, AD's, Coaches and Asst. Coaches that have come and gone in the past 25 years. Maybe now.....maybe.....people will wake the hell up and start asking the hard questions of the people making the decisions. The problem is obvious now. An AD we all love has left. There wasn't a President in place. The only people above Trev was the Board of Regents. Fingers must be pointed at the Board of Regents now. And....quite frankly....it's about damn time! Now, it's up to the voters. Will the people make the necessary changes on the Board of Regents now? At the end of the day, the voters decide. It's high time the people get off X, Facebook and Instagram....and PAY ATTENTION to the people who are continually blowing up the University of Nebraska. It must stop or we must give up on the idea of being relevant again anytime soon.
TA is a quitter.
What is the hold up of getting someone hired, I don't get it, should be first thing in agenda if someone is retiring, leaving, maybe board of regents needs to be voted out & start over, this us ridiculous! Trev should have stayed & fought to get what needed to be done tho, i think. We don't want to loose our good coaches over this
Hey man, its as much or more the governor too.
@JB-uv4hm yeah, i actually responded to someone else earlier who shared the same sentiment. This was my response to them: I don't blame trev at all.
On reddit, about half of the people are saying trev should have stayed too. I responded to one, and said "trev doesn't owe us anything."
Guy didn't know what i mean, and maybe it is kind of an esoteric point, so i explained my reasoning. You have what should be your dream job, at your alma mater, with your name on the stadium, and you just got an extension. Why would he leave?
Maybe pillen installed an automated machine gun turret in the AD office, and its only programmed to kill trev? Unlikely, but that would definitely get him to leave.
Maybe pillen, the BOR, and interim president were trying to force trev to do something he thinks is wrong. Maybe to force him, they dug up some blackmail on him. Maybe trev knew it would ruin his career?
Jobs can really really suck, and a bad boss can make a job thats a 10 out of 10 turn into a -10 out of 10 overnight.
Trev doesn't owe anyone his career, nor the sacrifice of working a terrible job.
For all we know, they may have told trev they were gonna fire him, and he had x amount of time to move on.
At the end of the day, this is 100% a political game, where we can only see 5% of what is happening, and we will likely never find out exactly what happened.
However, blaming trev is exactly what the politicians are trying to do; and we know they're liars trying to do fucked up shit at the university, so I'd say the most likely thing to have happened is the opposite of what the liars are saying. Trev probably ran to save himself.
@@moldguy3303 A thoughtful opinion. Here’s my take. Every job comes with ‘politics.’ Trev’s been swilling the ‘Husker heritage’ shtick for 2 plus years. Like a used car salesman to sell donors, coaches, recruits and yes, the average fan who still thinks it’s real and college athletics is about sport, sportsmanship and making better citizens through student athletics.
If all the talk was more than swill, he’d have stuck it out. In his position and with his “one of us” background, he had the power to deal with the politics that few ADs have.
Now, as you say, there could be something really weird there to make one say “hey I’d quit and run to…”.
Vote out every current Regent.
yeah in Nebraska they were too radical. I mean Nebraska is socialist city
Board of Regents is the problem here.
People don't leave a job because of the job-- they leave because of other people.
Ronnie Green, Ted Carter, Trev Alberts-- your top 3 guys leading an athletic department are gone roughly within a year.
Too much instability at the top for this to be a coincidence.
Agreed
Trev simply cut and ran. So much for all his blather about leadership and doing the right thing. Alberts just throws us to the wolves. No loyalty.
Oh! So you don't know politics. Noted. When somebody is in such a good position, you don't bounce for no reason. Get off your clown high horse
It's the same thing in any workforce. Companies that have high turnover rate don't have an employee problem they have a management problem
And you think Trev Alberts isnj't management? The Board of Regents is highly partisan on behalf of the University of Nebraska--that's why they are there. The fact you don't understand this reflects poorly on whatever academic background you have. Just hope it isn't Nebraska University. They should be on top of the massive payouts for coaches and staff that have not performed. A&M has the same problem so Alberts sould fit right in.
Going back to Osborne retirement and Solich firing....
Amen brother
This has the potential to completely derail Nebraska athletics and permanently destroy any chance of Husker Football returning to glory. Trev has to understand this and to do this to Nebraska, remove his face from our stadium immediately! What a complete stab in the back to the whole state.
Trev didn't want to leave. Look at Barb Weitz, the Scoggins saga, and a lack of a president for 206 days. That's why he left. The BOR at A&M are all appointed by the governor. They're all business people and conservative. They all care about football and winning games. Barb Weitz cares about women's issues, is far left, and for too controlling for her experience.
I can't blame Carter or Green leaving due to the BOR. I expected more from Trev. If there are problems he should just come out and say it. By not saying anything the problem doesn't get fixed.
He may have been tied down by a nondisclosure clause in his contract. Hard to know.
Trev is too much of a professional to “tell all” or burn bridges.
If there are considerable points of contention and those issues can't be resolved between parties, there isn't much of an option. People can't be forced to change.
I'm sure Trev isn't one to throw fits, demand things be his way and denounce whatever was being experienced. I'm sure that there were more things that he was grateful for and positive, constructive relationships too.
They'd better get the vacancies filled soon and reflect upon what ways they can better perform their obligations and be a supportive role to them or, excuse themselves.
My problem with Trevs decision is that he signed a 8 year deal back in november knowing there was an unknown future with the presidency. So if there was issues then why sign and give a commitment
@@connorledy8941 Too bad a few weren't as committed as he was. Now you've got more resources to pay the new AD who was on the job for about six months.
He actually might be pretty good and the possible president looks promising too.
I think you guys are right. I just hope Matt Rhule stays.
The Penn State job didn't just come open did it (face palm)
He will be there another year then gone when PSU opens up. Nebraska is coming up on a decade without making a 6 win bowl game. Nebraska is the only D1 team that hasn't made a bowl game since 2016. I mean..Kansas makes bowl games. Not sure what you think Rhule will do. I will say Nebraska is still number 1 at giving horrible coaches amazing retirement funds.
He won’t. Bye
@@danielrn133 I think your mom is the worst at giving BJs. Tell her to improve her game, because I feel like I didn't get my money's worth last time.
@@danielrn133 And how do you know that the Penn State job is coming open? That's right, you don't know squat. Franklin isn't going anywhere.
You said being AD at Nebraska "NOW" is a better job than A&M? The fact that some non-rev sports are doing well is irrelevant. Can you spell NIL??? NIL changed everything and A&M has endless amounts of donor oil money behind it. They easily raised the $700M to refurb Kyle Field and UN still has that hurdle to jump, and it's not a given Nebraska can raise the money necessary to do the job right. Alberts saw that football economics in the 2020s-2030s is a lot different than in the 1970s-1990s. In the 2020s it takes a lot of money to compete at the championship level in football and Nebraska doesn't have it. Being in the Big Ten means the Huskers athletic department will have a comfortable existence financially but it doesn't mean the Huskers can afford what it takes (NIL) to win a football championship.
Ron Green quit,Carter quit now Albert's quit........
Pattern of failure at the top....
If the Regents were the cause, we are screwed. How can we trust them to do the right thing now? A fish rots from the head down. They all need to go! If we do find the right person, that person is going to think twice before taking the job knowing that the Regents were able to drive the past leadership out. Thanks for the video.
Good thing 4 of the seats are up for election this year
The ones who can fix this and tell the regents who owns Nebraska football are the fans …..vote these azz clowns out . 4 on the ballot this year . Primary election is in may i think
They weren't the cause. He is a narcissist and wanted the bigger job. He also wants to distance himself from the Scoggin Lawsuit, which in the end, will make he and Amy Williams look really bad. They TOTALLY FAILED that young lady. And it will leave a dark cloud that he can somewhat escape from in College Station.
@beebers99 Interesting comment, a lot of which I'm not familiar with. But I do think you're probably right about Alberts. He's well-spoken and often says what sounds good but he's probably great at manipulating those around him (as narcissistics are known to do).
@@beebers99he can’t escape an on going lawsuit by changing jobs. 🤦
I'm 36, 5 kids, raised rural, live rural, graduated UNL with an Ag degree. You're 100% right to consider partisanship in things. Ask me if my 5 kids are in public/private school or homeschooled due to people heading up education departments decision making that is along party lines. My wife and I are both UNL alums and with all the debt. To our parents generation it was an expectation for us to all go to college even without a true direction, now a bs degree is like a diploma to employers. Now we sit around with all this college debt trying to dig out from it due to dumb advice and decisions. I would love to see my kids go to trade school and make a good living on people that won't replace their own toilet. To end my tangent rant I truly don't give a barren field of F's what happens with a college. I do diehard watch me some husker football but outside that let it go down if it deserves to. Maybe we can just treat it all like farm league for the NFL and we'll just pay to have players like is basically happening already and we just won't have an education requirement aspect.
Send them to trade school, plumbers, electritions and HVAC etc. make great money!
Sunday school-home school-trade school=The best schools
@@dmanwainright2132 All the likes for that comment. However, as we become better in our faith the 1st one and the building that it goes with seems to be fillied with just as many falsehoods. How many people have actually read that one book and then get it taught to them correctly.
Two of my son's are industrial electrician's making $180,000.00 a year. Collage is good way to maybe get paid and sit in a office like my other son does, but doesn't make the money they do. Learning a trade always seems to have a job for you somewhere.
Coming from a remote Husker for many years: Your argument sounds extremely reasonable.
Who put them there in the first place? There is your cause of the problem. Poor judgement.
Bill Byrne went to A&M because he wouldn't fire Soilch and meddling from chancellor and some boosters and regents
We think Nebraska is great with 5 National Championships, solid fraternity system, student body, honors program dorm etc. Texas A&M is working on the future in academic and sports. Neb should consider going to the big 12. Texas Husker
Randomly came across you guys. You make more sense than everyone else. Subscribed....
I'm not so much mad for him choosing to leave, because he could have aspirations of bigger and bigger things, but the WAY he left felt almost cowardly to me. But of course none of us know the real story on what goes on in the backroom
Spot on fella's, Carter's last letter to the board of regents says it ALL!
why has this program been in disarray, it seems since coach Osborne left
from coach Devaney to Osborne we had consistency, after 98 all seems to have gone to shit`
after 01 actually. Solich was the first scape goat.
Pelini was telling you this THE WHOLE TIME!! power hungry ppl at the top.
@@rickmoore4776 agreed !
Aren't the Nebraska Board of Regents elected by district?? If so, who picked them? Who are these folks with such bad judgement? Sounds like the root cause are the voters.
Going back to an old saying, "It's not about the money", it's about the money.
The board definitely didn't honor Alberts the way they should've. Period.
I think you are kind of on the right track. Politics, I think has a lot to do with it. But, I think with this Title 9 lawsuit, in which Alberts is named, I think the board nudged him out. I really believe Trev doesn't want to leave, he's being forced to leave.
Oh my! I hope this was not the reason!
Time to vote out every member of the board of regents
Terry Pettit: "Talented people (Ted Carter, Ronnie Green, Trev Alberts) leave a team when the leadership above them loses sight of the team's purpose. The team is the University. When the leadership cuts funding, and undermines the team's purpose with political dogma, they leave."
I find it odd he was so in love with Nebraska, signed a new deal, and then the Scoggin lawsuit breaks and he makes this sudden jump. I think he would have survived the Scoggin lawsuit, but it probably would have given him a bit of a black cloud as I do think he failed that student athlete bigtime. I don't think Amy Williams will survive it.
I think your analysis is spot on! The BOR shows why democracy doesn’t work without representation. Getting a louder voice bc of higher population pool doesn’t allow lower populated areas their perspective to be heard.
Barbara Weitz, you need to go on KFAB and explain why you think Trev Alberts left. Your BIO is far more detailed than any of the other regents to the point that it's obvious you don't feel confident that you should be on the BOR. No one lists their highschool accomplishments on a BIO. UNL does not need your approach or brand of politics. You're like Biden. Beyond your usefulness and needing to step down now.
Just think about it. TAMU is disfunctal crap show. But Trev, who is a very smart guy chose TAMU over his Huskers. Pretty much says it all.
When you look into the Board of Regents Bylaws and find the following on the first page, it speaks volumes about who is on that board:
"To prevent misinterpretation of the use of masculine pronouns in various pronouncements of the Board, sectionsof theBylawsof the Board, and rules and regulations of the University, the following canons of interpretation arehereby adopted by the Board of Regents for retroactive and prospective application:1. Words importing the masculine gender may be applied to females.2. Words importing the plural number may include the singular."
100%. fundamental difference with the people
I live down here in the Houston area, and I can tell you that based on the A&M news and reports A&M is in severe debt. They may be able to raise more money in the long-term, but they’re in a big hole.
This is 100% about Board of regents and no president. It’s ridiculous that it’s been seven months and we still don’t have somebody in place.
its pretty common for a University search to take up to a year. Regents are voted on by the same people as vote for governor and unicameral. Nebraska isn't a positive place for professionals to come too
@@johnsimon4263 i refuse to believe it takes a year to find a guy.. it makes zero sense.
$100 million in NIL could be the reason.
$100 million in NIL money at aTm, you can’t compete with oil $.
@@chestercrum4474 you’re 100% correct on that but I give it two years and there’s a collective bargaining agreement and a cap for every school in the power 5. It’s inevitable.
I mostly agree with what you said about the board. There are too many guys leaving. Something is wrong with the board. But how do other colleges do it? How do companies do it and be successful?
Omaha and Lincoln are blue, I don't think that matters, but maybe it does. Maybe you guys know the board, I do not the only time hear about them is during hiring and firing.
Whatever it is, it needs to be fixed in a hurry. Losing competent people is never a recipe for success and could keep others from coming and filling those positions.
I agree with your thoughts as well here. As long as those people are in charge, we will continue to not be able to have nice things!
So tired of the turnover. Trev alberts was highly respected to me Don't care about the board real husker stays in grits it out. Trev alberts is dead to me in my mind especially to go to a Texas school😢
I believe you guys are right. But I also think he has no idea what he has in store at A&M. Ask Jimbo
Really mature and informed insight.
You also laid out the logic behind it, very well.
This sucks :(
The board of regents blew it.😡🤬😡🤬👎
VOTE THE REGENTS OUT !
Who should the new regents be? I have never heard an agenda for any of them. I’ve looked. How do you know what you’re voting for?
@@isaiahs1351 shut up dude.. wake up. Its not rocket science. You better listen up pal all rich fans who know rich donors and regents better get the F out of our way or grow thick skin because the people are pissed off.
VOTE OUT ALL REGENTS THIS FALL. NOW IS OUR CHANCE TO EXPRESS OUR RAGE..
I’m serious. How do you know the new people aren’t worse than the old? I’m all for voting new regents that better align with my views but I’m not interested in blindly voting option B assuming it is better than a bad option A. Option B could be much worse for football, all other sports and for the colleges education programs. I want better not different.
@@isaiahs1351 IMHO power corrupts over time. The longer someone is in, the more power they get. I'd be more likely to vote in another person than have someone stick around and make a career out of an elected position. At least that's what I do when judges are up for reelection.
No loyalty, from players, coaches and admin. The only loyalty is the fans and its weining.
Solich would be a good replacement, what’s your thoughts
Matt Rhule was a great choice? Did you see the way he managed/ mismanaged the last 4 games of the year? Out defense played like 2 good offenses all year and gave up 40+ to each.
As I indicated on another channel, this is beyond the Board of Regents...don't get me wrong, they were just as culpable, but I think if you really dig into this, you will find the finger prints of the current Governor. The current Governor was unable to get the changes he wanted while on the Board of Regents, so he is attempting to unilaterally make the changes as Governor. Nebraskans can either accept this and allow it to be done to them, or they can step up and stop the destruction of a Nebraska staple (University System) and Nebraska pride (Huskers...across the board). So, no pun intended...Nebraskans, the ball is in your court. What are you going to do?
“The ball is in your court” seems like an odd phrase in huskerdom.
why would he leave for that job? Resources. Texas A&M has the $$$$$$$$$$$$$ to do what he wants to do. No issues with getting the stadium fudning done. And you can go on and on. Texas A&M has an endless fund of $$$$$$$$
He was paid enough and given alot from nebraska to endure some challenging time. He was a nobody ad of a very small college when we hired him. The record will show under his leadership nebraska never had a winning season
Winning football season.
Lots of winning, just not in football.
The only winning program ever associated with Trev Alberts was the UNO wrestling team...and that's because he killed it. That about sums up his career in Nebraska athletics as an AD.
UNO Hockey, NU women's basketball and volleyball. Now men's basketball, wrestling and football are on an upward trajectory. It's not that I like bucket head, especially after he fired Frost a week early so he could collect an extra $10 million, but you are wrong.
@@jasonpatterson2143So he kept the sports that DIDN'T win a national championship and that's the mark of success? Also, wrestling is one of the cheapest sports to support.
I'm sorry to mention another podcast on your channel but Husker dock talk had a great show on this... Like it or not. They said the football program is the face of the institution and the state.... Same as in Alabama... If some egghead doesn't like it, too bad!
It would be a wonderful world if the face of Nebraska was the academic side of UNL, but it's not the case and some of those people need to move on. They are damaging the Golden Goose that feeds the state financially and even 'spiritually'. There's no denying the state of the program affects the psyche of the people of Nebraska positively and negatively
Same song, at least 2nd verse: The plan was for T.O. to be the A.D. but eggheads got in the way and Chancellor Graham Spanier installed HIS guy, Bill Byrne -- who eventually left NU for A&M! (Karma bit Spanier in the butt after the Sandusky scandal which took down him down along with "Joe Paterbo.") Eggheads ALWAYS know best...right.
We don’t mind mentioning other channels we watch a lot of other Husker channels. We’ll check that video out
I think there are 3 reasons trev left, some issuee with the board, A&M NIL money but the main being a scandal with student athlete dating a coach and trev was awaire of it.
My greatest fear is that we lose Rhule if/when the Penn State job opens up.
Yep! Gonna happen… I’m so tired of those crap:(
Rhule isn’t 😂a winner who gives af
UNO is just as much my campus as UNL. Honestly, I'm okay with Trev leaving UNL. I didn't feel he did much at UNO. Most was done after UNO changed president and other items. Every once in a while, you'd see Trev show up at a hockey game. You know, when there was some award presentation. UNL's programs, except football was already on the uptick before Trev. I give Trev some credit for Rhule hire, but it was Osborne who sold it. I think he has to work hard at UNL to raise money, and he's tired of it. Whereas at Tex A&M, it just comes in if you show up. Yet, A&M will hold him much more accountable than UNL for his hires. Realistically, I think Trev wanted to be UNL president and the regents said no. Which they should have. He doesn't have the experience. He really didn't have the experience to be at UNL. The Regents here are not the issue. Look at everything they've approved lately. They also have to work at selling each other. They don't rubber stamp everything. Regents may be the problem for the president, but Trev left for money and an easier path to accession up the ladder.
Trev should have aired his grievances long ago instead of pulling the rug out like this. He could have leveraged public opinion against these elected arseholes but no, he runs away. I don't have an issue with his ambitions, just how he screwed over his alma mater.
Cut it any way you want, but in this instance, Trv was a real chickensht.
People don’t generally get to the level of leading major corporations by making public comments about the people they report to. It’s seen as unprofessional.
Question is what's next for both AD and the President? Who are they going to be? Who are we going to get? I have my suggestions. But who is first President or AD? Who are your candidates? Do we look at Nebraska Alumni or outside the box?
seems like the more they pay these coaches and ADs the less they do
Interesting take. GBR!
Between 2010-2014, 7 of 8 regents changed. And the incoming class exists to this day. Shortly after that change over musical chairs at the University began. Coaches started having their contracts renewed 6 months before getting fired. I think 5 AD’s 4 coaches… in football, 3 in baseball? 3 in basketball… that’s your instability right tgere
I hear you and feel you Quit while you are ahead Trevie …..
Trev should have stayed in the fight for what he wanted to do with husker athletics …instead of cut and run to A&M. Very unprofessional.
Same people allowed alumni to fire Bo Pelini. Huge mistake that tailed spinned Neb football into a loser
My understanding from many that work at the place it is 100% due to Trevs pursuit of a female coach. He was warned about it on several occasions to either keep it on the down low or end it. He did neither and was given the choice find a new job or get terminated. So the only one I am blaming is Trev.
Your saying Trev wanted to fuck a female coach ? Yeah I don't believe that.. its hearsay and gossip
Lol! I hope you don't believe that.
@@st85100 that's a troll being silly i think..🤣
@@DionPryor-sv1qj Sounds about right! Lol
Money 🤑🤑🤑🤑🤑 . The leadership of the university as well . However I feel with the coaches we have I think will be fine . Just pray that UNL can get there shit together soon !!
Find out what's important to each member of the board of regents, and if it's not about the success of all the athletic teams the the comfort and enjoyment of the fan's, and the success and growth of the University! Then, vote them out! Vote in people who believe in the values and leadership of the university.
Good discussion. Your analysis really resonates. Here’s the thing, Nebraska has had leadership in the past focused on incremental improvements & progressing forward. There were some aligned core values that valued inclusion. It wasn’t perfect but better than most places. This identity permeated the university ant large and athletic teams. That’s been eroding & divisiveness & exclusionary thinking have seeped in. Those forces will make selecting leaders harder as political ideology begins to trump aligning around the common good of the university to benefit the state as a whole.
I didn’t like the way the Trev transition happened but I do understand the importance of finding internal peace in one’s life. Sometimes that requires making choices others disagree with. I hope that was his thinking. If it was just money or power, that be different.
For UNL, they need to get their things together. They need to avoid political intrusions promoted by the former & current governor & those aligned to them. The state isn’t a “conservative” state or a “red” state, and the same goes for the university. The state & university should be inclusive of people w/ diverse perspectives & backgrounds. It deserves funding from the state to grow & the budget should be weaponized to facilitate a leadership shakeup and to force so called “conservative” ideology. Nebraska shouldn’t try to be “Florida lite.” The leadership should be aligned in moving the university forward in an inclusive manner that is focused on excellence in academics, athletics, and community/state/global contributions.
Wow I think it’s greatly exaggerated where all the sports are at for Nebraska.
Volleyball was always good so no change.
The basketball teams are better but they aren’t sweet-16 locks.
Baseball might be better but we are talking about Big10 baseball and it’s hard not to improve baseball from where it was.
The thing is aTm offered ridiculous money.
I truly think Nebraska can fill this spot with even someone more advanced who will go harder after NIL. I don’t think Alberts ever embraced NIL properly. Nebraska basic all has 1 big giver and there is no real direction with NIL and that falls on Alberts.
Yeah well Scott Frost brought it up his second year right after Bill Mose left they don't feel Nebraska football needs to be back on top so my feelings are he didn't want to fight to make Nebraska better so why bother when upper isn't going to budge. Now feeling Matt Rule might look else where as well. No one is really going to open up and say what the real problem is
“Wrestling” 😂😂
Wass/is he actually a good AD? We really aren't sure down here in College Station. Bjork (previous A&M AD) made and oversaw some really good hires. I think the first coach on the hot seat with Alberts is Buzz Williams (basketball coach). Do yall think he is hard a** enough to come in and make an example out of Williams?
I think they have a point here, but i also think its the boosters that ousted Frank Solich and Bo Polinni, both coaches won 8-9 games a year, got bowl games but the boosters demanded what Osbourn produced, ignoring that Osbourn took a while to get to where he was in the 90s also, I think they're WAY WAY WAY to overbearing, just a theory though
Entire board should resign Friday……….
Non-partisan doesn't mean you don't care who wins an election, it means you don't choose who you vote for, or which way you go on a particular issue because of what a either party says. A non-partisan issue is an issue where opinions don't split along party lines.
What’s the political climate like in the board of regents
Texas A&M is a great school for students that are going into the oil industry so there is plenty of money for the athletic programs. If you need to get NIL money to bring a kid in at A&M it's there,at Nebraska arms may need to be twisted. Makes an AD's quality of life a lot better.
All major catastrophic football decision’s at Nebraska have been initiated by the AD’s. Pederson , Osborne , Eichorst, Moos, luckily Trev pointed us in the right direction.
why can't we have nice things? because the powers that be hate NU football and conspire against it constantly.
Isn’t it amazing that two areas are controlling the outcome of our happiness during football season. Every Husker fan needs to be aware of this stuff going on
Elected officials misrepresenting voters!? Well thats never happened before... 😂😂😂
We gonna lose our head coach:( I’m starting to get mad about this…there’s no reason for this happening!
There are too many people in charge that can't agree on anything.
So much focus on football and the hopes of returning to glory days. Those days are waaaay long gone as today’s modern collegiate football is money. SEC and the network contracts, Texas A&M’s 12th Man Foundation and NIL money are light years ahead of anything in Nebraska. Right or wrong, money allows the freedom and opportunity to compete in this modern era of collegiate sports. Money can also be it's demise… can you say Jimbo Fisher? I don’t know how Husker Nation competes until the NCAA levels the playing field. It's a unique time in college athletics, don’t know if I’m sad about, optimistic, hopeful but what moving forward, there needs to be young, true blooded Huskers on the board of regents that look at the fans, students and alumni with more respect & passion. Too much ideological political nonsense in this BOR
And at the same time, MONEY is our only competitive advantage to get elite talent in here to stay. The local recruiting base is usually not up to par. This was the best year for local athletes in a long time but it's not the norm.
They are listed as Non Partisan because the positions are non partisan, meaning that when elected you do not have people officially from political parties. No party is listed on the ballot. So you could have all Republican or all Democrats listed on the ballot.
All we can hope is that Nebraska’s board of regents get vaccinated early and often. GBR!!!
can't count the number of times the phrase "I'm not saying" was said.I am saying I don't know what was said
Maybe the guy didn’t want to live in Lincoln, NE. I live outside Lincoln and it isn’t exactly a tourist destination. It’s really nothing.
I totally agree Gary, starts at the top!!
Yes David and Derek
Big donors have a lot of influence on what goes on. Those board people that are connected with them influence the rest of the board.
Trev is a traitor to nebraska. Getting a job that is your dream, and throwing it away for a rival school? He loves left us while we were getting things fixed. What a Benedict Arnold move. Trev, I hope you never succeed there. Disgusting move.
man too bad we can't tap the Oracle of Omaha like Oregon taps founder of Nike and Texas A&M Oil Money .... politics is always so doo doo man BOR mannnn. It just puts future in doubt w/ fball
The guy on the left is the voice for the GMC Denali commercials, yes?!
Good ear! Yes lol
@@bigredrant2354 No way?! Serious?
no lol but he should be on the short list as a replacement @@aalekhine5109
Tell the fans how to get rid of some BOR idiots.
BS If you are a true leader, you step up and fill the void. Whose going to carry the boats. As a leader you don't jump every time something gets bad. This is purely Alberts after a shinier object. It's a matter of character. And he duped everybody.
The real reason he left is he’s an imposter and wanted the money before anyone found out. I don’t get why Aggie hired him but they also thought Dumbo was going to win it all.
Let's rename them : the board of rejects !
I deeply suspect that DEI has had a hand in this situation.
I’m really surprised he’s leaving. They are probably paying him lots of money
Our Nebraska AD job isn't that great. He's going to the SEC, which is the big leagues. The haters also point out the lawsuit. I'm sure we will be fine. He did great, and things will be ok.
So we can get better. Same reason NU runs through coaches freely.
How many boomers on the board? 😂 They won't rest until they take down everything good in this world.
So I'm sympathetic to the frustration you guys are feeling. I definitely get it.
But y'all need to work on your objectivity, big time.
1st, "Aggie =/= Nebraska" but then go on and on about how disfunctional Nebraska is. Maybe, just maybe, the A&M job is (at worst) at the same level as Nevraska but less dysfunctional.
2nd, Aggie money is way bigger than you think. Ags had the exact opposite experience than the Huskers did from 2012 to date. Check the athletic program revenue numbers for the last 12 years.
Truth is? Probably both are true. The Aggies bought.your guy, and did so because they are running a better ship.
Vote them out . 4 are on the ballot this year
You either leave because of getting in trouble for something so you jump ship legal reasons or leave for more money always going to have politics my guess is he sees more room for growth elsewhere
