NU announces Lane Grindle is the new P.A. guy for #Huskers football in 2015.

 

Lane is good.

 

I like this hire.

Brian Rosenthal said this gig pays $150 a game.

Really?? So, this is only for at most $1,200 per season?

 

Hmmm...that surprises me.

Did you think doing this job for 8 days a year would pay more?

[The Dude]

I always liked Lane Grindle. Good hire.

[caveman99]

So does Lane take a pay cut for this?

[Tomhusker64]

Looks like they filled out already. One of the radio crew is getting it.

I think it pays more than $1200 per season, as my son gets that much at a much smaller school.

It is more than just showing up and announcing first downs. You have advertisement spots to record, homecoming ceremonies to do, scheduling of breaks and coordinating with music and video productions.

Lane Grindle? Are we sure? I mean a lot can happen in three days.

Emergency hire. It's gonna take 3 days just to learn how to pronounce some of the Polynesian names on BYU's roster.

The bad look here is that UNL didn't do their due diligence before hiring him. If this was a deal-breaker, they should have never offered him the gig. He applied, they had time to look through his social media, and they still offered him the job.

 

Now, it looks petty that because he said a cross word about Perlman, he gets the job offer rescinded. The really bad look is that they didn't do their homework before making the offer public.

Can you picture Harvey sitting at his desk. Doing the Lords work for UNL. His assistant comes in with the press release that a new PA announcer named Jon Schuetz has been hired after an exhaustive search.

 

Harvey ponders the name. Reaches down into a drawer of his desk. Flips to the files under "S". Pulls out a social media post made by a person of the same name calling Harvey a disgrace.

 

Hands it to the assistant without saying a word. Walks the assistant to the door and quietly closes it behind him. Turns back and walks to his desk with an evil smile.

 

 

end scene

Truth hurts i guess. He was right on the money with his comments. f#*k Harvey!!

[Moiraine]

I don't think there's anything wrong with them caring what it said, and if I'm applying for a job and have said sh#t about my future boss, I'm not dumb enough to leave it up there.

That being said, like others have said, they should have figured this out before hiring him.

Truth hurts is right, 408 was a petulant prick and was fired far to late. Jon posted something stupid on facebook and followed it by posting something stupid on twitter. You can't fix stupid. Two strikes against your employer and you are outta here. good riddance, Lane is an upgrade

[Dagerow]

The way the administration just acted only serves to reinforce that what Jon said about Perlman is accurate.

You might explain please... What world are you living in, that you can disparage a future employer and follow it up a day after you are employed and say something stupid on twitter about how the blackshirts are handed out. They acted properly, I would have done the same.

[Flat Water]

Who is being announced and the new Nebraska PA guy tomorrow?
