Trev Alberts will not be a candidate for the open athletic director job at Nebraska, the Omaha World-Herald reports. Alberts, the AD at the University of Nebraska at Omaha, won the Butkus Award for the Cornhuskers in 1993 and had been considered a leading candidate. He reportedly told his staffers in an email on Wednesday that he had been contacted by Nebraska's search firm and asked to interview — and that he turned down the opportunity.

Weekend chatter is suggesting a new AD will be announced soon.  Two leading rumors:  Ark's AD or UCF's AD

What could speculate that if Nebraska really wants Frost, then Mullens or White will be the next AD.

I think he hired chip Kelly at uo, quit after a fight w Phil knight over something and fired paul wulff, though a monkey could have made that decision. 

Fwiw $ Bill Byrne was a former UO ad.  
Hiring Frost seems to be fait accompli.

much talk about people being the right "fit" for the position and the community

Frost would be a good "fit" being from Wood River, NE

Hiring anyone but Frost is a firable decision

regarding Moos.. initial reaction was meh.  UNL already tried the close to retirement guy from the NW as the FB coach.   I'd prefer to see someone who potentially could be around for more than 5 years.  Seems to me UNL was more obsessed with certain resume requirements (P5 experience in this case) than overall resume.. once again.  

guess we will see how he handles hiring Frost (I've been led to understand he will look around) and deals with basketball.  But again, initial reaction was meh.

yup, when you plan to retire in 5 years, not a big deal if your coaching hire doesn't work out and you get fired in 3 or 4 years
