And now he wants to be there when he wants to be there. He did his job and earned his coin. Four/five years is starting to be on the long side for a. AD. It’s going to take a ton of effort, focus, motivation for the next landscape transition. It’s not that he can’t- he don’t want.
You are probably right, but it did seem like a, "hey, we can get our guy right now" retirement of Moos. I have been through two of those in our HS with new coaching hires this year.
FWIW there was an interesting call to Damon and Mikel on 1620 this morning. Guy self identified as a donor (we all know that could mean anything), but had interesting well put together thoughts. Said we struck out on option A and option B was still mulling it over. Makes me wonder, if the fact we haven’t signed the search firm contract, we’re waiting for option B to tell us no, then turning it over to a firm.
Option A was Pollard and he told us no from what I've heard. What a world where you'd rather be at ISU than NU :bang
Made me think option B was Stewart and he is mulling it over. If he says no, open it up for a firm to pick the best available “Outsider”
ISU is on the doorstep of the CFB Playoff. Would really be a weird time to come to school where the department bellwether hasn't made a bowl in 4 years and, oh yeah, the possibility of firing the native son increases with each losing season. Like you said, hard to blame him. Nebraska AD job is a good job, to the right person. It also comes with it's drawbacks. This job screams, up and comer, young, energetic, wanting to make a splash - not, proven, established, in a cushy place.
