International Man of Mystery
Is being reported as the leading candidate for AD and he just resigned from the University of Miami.

 
Ik this is naive thinking, but why should i have confidence in someone who can only get 500 people in the stands for football? Ik there are some circumstances at Miami, but damn that's bad.

 
I mentioned in the rumorville thread that I was hoping for someone within. I was skeptical on someone from Miami. But it was a kneejerk, pre-conceived opinion. Someone pointed out his experience with Alvarez, so i did some reading on the guy. A pretty good choice in my eyes. Also someone who walked in a firestorm down and probably wants to get the hell out and start again.

 
I'm sure he'll do a fine job. I'm ok with the hire. But personally I would have just assumed have PM as I see these two as pretty equal. The only difference is that someone else gave him an AD job a year ago and he took it even though it was a time bomb of a job.

 
I know a change is needed. I know TO is getting old and we need younger energy.

But, I'm nervous. I believe right now we have good coaches in most sports at Nebraska. People like Miles are new and trying hard to build programs and I think he is doing a great job. People like Cook and Pelini are heads of good programs or have come a long ways building their programs.

A new AD can cause changes in coaches if they don't get along.

Pardon me if I'm shell shocked from the Peddy hire. I know nothing about this guy but I'm just nervous about the change in general.

 
I'm not to god awful worried. I'm sure Tom has had a pretty big voice in the process. I'm sure the right choice is being made. It has to be, because Tom won't be able to save us again.

I wonder what this guy will think about a full stadium to look at on gameday?

 
First task as new AD for Eichorst: keep Paul Meyers.
