I think it's a little too early to tell.
I think we can revisit in 2029-ish and make a ruling.
Right now he looks like the best AD hire in a long time. As you'd mentioned, NU has made two universally accepted great hires and looks to be on the right track. Hoiberg hasn't coached a game yet and Frost has a losing record, so I think it's too early to say Moos is the 'GOAT' or the 'TAINT' or whatever acronym someone who used to be on here more often would use. I like his hiring and what he's done so far, but let's ease up on the throttle a tad.
Am I Mr Wet Blanket or what?

Had the moxey to hire TO, Francis Allen, Terry Pettit, Danny Nee and John Sanders. All without holding a blank check in hand from the University brass.
Might not be part of the hiring process but it's certainly a part of any AD's legacy....Whether they are successful or not isn't really part of the hiring process. Everyone should be able to believe that he has done what he can control and that is hire the right people on paper and give them the money and resources. I think that can be called an A+.

In terms of impact to Husker athletics, maybe? In about an 18-month span, Moos will have been responsible for hiring a new head football coach, a new head basketball coach, and a new head baseball coach.
When was the last time somebody had that much impact over the whole of Husker Athletics? Seems like the only other big money maker he hasn't had to mess with is women's volleyball.
If he lands a home run hire (pun intended), he'll have been responsible for putting our 3 biggest men's sports back on track. Obviously the jury is still out on Hoiberg, but I think most everybody is in agreement on Frost.
I think Hoiberg is more of a homerun hire than Frost, but the jury is still out on both.
ReportedI liked Steve Pederson.

Yes, jury is still out on both. But IMO, Frost is more of a homerun hire than Hoiberg ...... ISU good, Chicago Bulls, bad.
Great FBall coach. Poor AD.
