Enjoy the NCAA basketball tournament the next few years before the SEC and B1G fundamentally change it

From a "guy who knows stuff" on another message board and has been right about a lot of things in the past: The BOR did a half-a$$ search for a new president (Carter replacement) and had settled on naming the Chris Kabourek (the current interim president) the new president. Trev and Kabourek don't get along the best going back to Trev's UNO days. Trev feels Kabourek is underqualified to be president and also Kabourek isn't keen on the new stadium project.

Failing to fulfill the promise that made him the No. 5 pick in the 1994 NFL draft, linebacker Trev Alberts retired yesterday after three injury plagued seasons with the Indianapolis Colts. The Colts announced the retirement a day after the former Nebraska star failed to show up for scheduled reconstructive surgery on his right shoulder. "It was something that was hanging out there that needed to be closed, and now it is," said Bill Tobin, vice president of football operations for the Colts. https://www.southcoasttoday.com/story/sports/1997/07/23/colts-linebacker-alberts-calls-it/50607181007/

Agree with everything Dirk has been saying the last 24 hours. I think there is plenty of blame to go around here. BOR, lack of President, Chancellor, Governor, Legislature, and Trev - all of them.

Gotcha loud and clear

Here is that is out there on the A&M terms

He just signed a new contract 4 months ago that made him the 2nd highest paid AD in the B1G and top 10 nationally.

WWE can explain everything

Trev quit ESPN by not showing up Labor Day weekend in 2005 because he thought he was playing second fiddle to the Gameday crew. John Walters, SI.com ESPN fired Trev Alberts on Sunday after the college football analyst failed to show up for work at ESPN's studios in Bristol, Conn. "He phoned and said that he wasn't going to show up," Mark Shapiro, ESPN's Vice President of Programming and Production, told SI.com on Tuesday night, "and when he didn't, he was in breach of his contract and we terminated him." Alberts, a former All-American defensive end at Nebraska and member of the NFL's Indianapolis Colts, was embarking on his fourth season as part of ESPN's popular College Football Scoreboard and College Football Gameday team. But on Sunday morning, in the midst of college football's first big weekend of the season, Alberts phoned ESPN's coordinating producer of college football, Ed Placey, and voiced his discontent. "He phoned us and told us that he was unhappy with his role on College GameDay," said Shapiro. "He felt that he was playing second fiddle." As the day wore on, according to both Shapiro and Alberts, there were several conversations between Alberts and ESPN senior vice presidents Jed Drake and Norby Williamson. Finally, Alberts announced that he would not be reporting for work that afternoon (ESPN and ESPN2 aired three college football games between 3:30 p.m. and 10:30 p.m.). Once Alberts failed to appear for his studio show assignment with host Rece Davis and fellow analyst Mark May, he was fired. "They first wanted me to resign," Alberts said on Tuesday night from his Atlanta home. "Then they fired me. I obviously have a serious problem with the word 'breach', but that's something my attorney will work out."

For real, Mack Rhoads from Baylor. Prior relationship with Rhule. Has helped build a basketball power. Got funding to build a new basketball arena.

Rhule tried to get away for a few days over spring break…

To say this came as a shock in Nebraska qualifies as a gross understatement. “What the heck’s going on?” four-time national-champion Nebraska volleyball coach John Cook replied in a morning text exchange.

We’ve seen questionable decision making from Trev before. Trev didn’t fire Frost when he should have, and then when he did fire him he did it a week before his buyout dropped $10M.

Pretty sure the Nebraska fanbase (at least the online Nebraska fanbase) is losing its mind around Trev leaving

He triggered you so much with that post that you had to create an account to respond. LOL

If anyone is going to the game Friday night and needs 2 tickets let me know. I ended up with 4 and only need 2. Section 104 (Corner baseline) Row 7 (actual is row 3, since there is no row 1-3 in the seating chart) I'll sell them at what I paid ($135 each I think) And best part is you don't have to sit by me as I will be sitting in my other tickets on the other side of the arena

Heady has 2 tweets he pulls out few times a year that always have me nodding my head. Above is one. And the other is:

Was Trev in Minneapolis last weekend watching the women in the B1G tournament? Kind of telling if he wasn't there at least for the final.
