I don't know a great deal about him. Let's be honest though, none of us know much about ADs around the country. No, but most here know lots about the athletic departments around the country. Of which Washington State isn't very impressive on any front. He's the Mike Riley of AD hires 3 Quote Link to comment
HuskerNation1 Posted October 15, 2017 Share Posted October 15, 2017 Shocking move. I dont know much about Moos but the last time we hired a 60--plus year old guy from the west coast that was not on the radar, things did not turn out well. 2 Quote Link to comment

MichiganDad3 Posted October 15, 2017 Share Posted October 15, 2017 Can the Nebraska government pass a law to prevent any athletic hires from the Northwest part of the US? Quote Link to comment
The Duke Posted October 15, 2017 Author Share Posted October 15, 2017 My initial thoughts on this anncoucement is that it was totally out of left field. Much of the major sports media, both local & national did not have this on their radar. Let's hope this hire out of the Pac-12 actually works for Nebraska this time around. 1 Quote Link to comment

olddominionhusker Posted October 15, 2017 Share Posted October 15, 2017 I'm just going to assume from now on that no matter what this University will continue to hire the most underwhelming people imaginable. 5 Quote Link to comment
MichiganDad3 Posted October 15, 2017 Share Posted October 15, 2017 This does not sound good. I thought the AD was supposed to get along with the big money people.

MichiganDad3 Posted October 15, 2017 Share Posted October 15, 2017 How bad would it stink if we hire Mike Leach! Quote Link to comment
