I'm sure she wouldn't. I only replied to your post because your first sentence was, Condi isn't a Husker.

 

An interesting note, there are 3 schools in the power 5 conferences that have women athletic directors.  Two of those schools finished last year ranked in the top 7 of the AP poll. 

#4 Washington and #7 Penn State.

That IS interesting....I didn't know that.

Rumor is Barry Alvarez was seen in Lincoln today.

I actually wouldn't mind Betty White. We'd have the St. Olaf recruiting pipeline completely locked up.

Here is the Omaha World-Herald's take on who could be the next athletic director.

 

 

 Home run if we get this guy, and the rumor is true that we ae close to signing this guy... gives me great hope for our future

It's not him - https://mobile.twitter.com/_delconte/status/917140650423930881

 

Reports are that we are courting a couple of SEC ADs. No idea who they are, maybe Ole Miss AD.

Don't think Del Conte is coming but I also don't think a tweet really confirms anything. 

[BartonHusker]

Bjork would be quite good imo. Has had to deal with some definite crap but still a rockstar in the industry. I know he is a Dodge City native (played at Dodge City CC & Emporia State).  He would likely know Nebraska quite well. 

 

TCU's AD would also be good.

I thought Del Monte was gonna be our sponsor.

I just love when they keep dropping down the list of strangers toward mediocrity. (Sarcasm)

Guys, get real. It’s gonna take a LOT of money to pry CDC from TCU. The remnants of the Big XII are familiar with playing SWC dirty pool, and they’ll do what is necessary to keep CDC in Ft. Worth.

 

Granted, CDC would be a great hire. He’s just not a realistic one IMO.

Just hope the search firm leader doesn't meet some really nice guy at some conference.

Using NU for a raise then! Why wouldn't he!?

[Nebhawk]

Honestly, thats all these things do is make more money for the ones that are good.  Good AD, at a P5 school already, isn't just going to leave without options.  More money!

 

When I heard about OU's guy being a possible candidate, thats someone to go get!  He has hired basketball coaches and football coaches who win, well at least basketball!

He could have waited until the plane was sitting on the tarmac for him and gotten an even bigger raise. Rookie mistake.
