Sometimes when I'm bored, I'll look through local sportswriters twitter for clues in their follows. This dude is a former Nebraska athlete, is USC's Associate AD and his most recent followers are: Mike Schaefer, Parker Gabriel, Robin Washut, Nick Bahe, Nebraska Athletics Admin Graduate Program, The GM for "Nebraska Athletics Partners, and Sean Callahan.....safe to say he's maybe a candidate???

Was going to state similar- pretty young guy. However, young and forward thinking may not be bad if he has the skillset for the job.

He also looks younger than he is. Was going to say would love someone like Danny White, but they are pretty much the same age. So, maybe the guy is it.

Sipple and Parker Gabriel had some real interesting stuff to say about the AD search on the second half of their Husker Extra podcast yesterday.
- Sipple suggested that Cook is "definitely" involved in this search. Involved from a candidate standpoint, is how I took it.
- Albert's is a definite potential option, (so is Klassy).
- Sipple is intrigued by, and suggested not to rule out Davison. He cited his fundraising ability, and obvious commitment to all things Nebraska.
- Parker mentioned it has become a national search at this point. Sipple added that multiple interviews had took place.
There were a few more tidbits, I'm sure. Interesting stuff.

That's some solid digging! That being said, as dysfunctional as things are at Nebraska, it was probably 10x worse at USC. I'll be interested to see if Mike Bohn can turn things around because it was an absolute dumpster fire under Pat Haden and Mike Garrett.

That day? As in “a day ending in ‘y’” “that day”?
Cause there’s been more than one time on his AM radio show where he just sounds b*****t crazy and like he poured too much vodka into his cereal bowl that morning.

I mean...at this stage of the game, I'm assuming that Sipple is that guy that hits a strip club at 11am because he likes the buffet.

I think age would be working against Cook. In few years we would be doing this all over again. I'd really like to see somebody come in and be successful in the long haul. Plus, from what I've heard the VB recruiting class this year is like #1 in nation and destined for great things. I'd hate to see the most successful sport at the University upset by losing their coach.

Seriously. That would be a stupid decision to remove the best coach we have and make him hire his own replacement.
