Redux Posted February 16, 2016 Share Posted February 16, 2016 Unless it's Tom Osborne, Frank Solich, Tommie Frazier or Turner Gill you can get out! Quote Link to comment
Frostberg Posted February 16, 2016 Author Share Posted February 16, 2016 A lot of people thought that Trev Alberts would get the job. Quote Link to comment

RedDenver Posted February 16, 2016 Share Posted February 16, 2016 I had to Google all of them... so much for a "splash" hire who would be a "splash" hire? Trev Alberts, of course. Come on, man! Quote Link to comment
sho Posted February 16, 2016 Share Posted February 16, 2016 I'll be upset if Sabah gets the job. It'll just be another sign that Riley is hiring buddies instead of hiring the best person for the position. 1 Quote Link to comment
Moiraine Posted February 16, 2016 Share Posted February 16, 2016 I'm assuming all the replies to this topic are jokes. 1 Quote Link to comment
Enhance Posted February 16, 2016 Share Posted February 16, 2016 I had to Google all of them... so much for a "splash" hire Not sure if serious, so apologies if you're joking, because I think 90% or more of Nebraskans and UNL alumni will have to google these people's names. Second, why do people think Alberts would've been a good hire for Chancellor? He's an AD - not a Chancellor - and they are two very different things. Yes, the Chancellor plays a significant role in the AD (which is why so many people love Perlman, obvi) but that is only a small portion of their role and responsibilities. Take this all with a grain of salt because of lot of these responses feel like jokes. Quote Link to comment
schriznoeder Posted February 16, 2016 Share Posted February 16, 2016 Ronnie Green all the way! He's a great guy and a great fit for the job. Quote Link to comment

Gotta say, I'm not too excited about these names... Who were you expecting? Gordon Gee? I'm sure every single one of them is perfectly qualified. A lot of people thought that Trev Alberts would get the job. Who thought that? I don't know a single person who said anything along those lines. Quote Link to comment
swmohusker Posted February 16, 2016 Share Posted February 16, 2016 No Jim Tressel. C'mom man! Quote Link to comment
VectorVictor Posted February 16, 2016 Share Posted February 16, 2016 Frankly I'd rather see Graham Spanier back at DONU before any of the candidates listed above. One of my friends thinks Mark S. Wrighton would be a good choice than all of the above--affordable, local (he's in St. Louis), smart, and has been involved with large institutions (FSU) before. I don't know enough to say one way or the other on him though. Quote Link to comment
