Moos to Retire from Athletic Director Position - University of Nebraska
University of Nebraska Athletic Director Bill Moos announced today that he will retire from his position effective June 30, 2021. Moos has led the Nebraska Athletichuskers.com
Very carefully worded, but it looks to me like he was "encouraged to retire", given that his ;last day is in next to a week. If the plan had been for him to retire at the end of the fiscal year, it would have been made public awhile ago.Official statement:

5. Wants to go back to the ranch and just enjoy his senior years.If I had to guess, it’s one of 4 things:
1. Health issue
2. The bottle
3. Got another gig
4. Big money donors want a new guy in place should Frostee need to be taken out.
Ed, Dave Rimington, & Matt Davison are the 3 Nebraska names that would have the ties & public perception to be in contention.
But Pederson had the public perception & ties and was a disaster. Moos came out of left field (at least for me), and pretty much nailed all the big ticket items, so hopefully if they go with one of those 3, they're well-vetted.
Edit: and Trev.
I seem to recall Remington stating he would be retiring around this timeframe. Still think it will be Ed StewartEd, Dave Rimington, & Matt Davison are the 3 Nebraska names that would have the ties & public perception to be in contention.

Agree. Has a ring to it I don't like.Very carefully worded, but it looks to me like he was "encouraged to retire", given that his ;last day is in next to a week. If the plan had been for him to retire at the end of the fiscal year, it would have been made public awhile ago.
I wonder if Hank Bounds isn’t up there as wellEd, Dave Rimington, & Matt Davison are the 3 Nebraska names that would have the ties & public perception to be in contention.

Key point bolded. If this was a "retire or else" situation there had to be more going on than meets the eyes....Unless there are issues in the building we are not privy to... I think this is a mistake (in the now). Baseball just had a great year and Basketball is recruiting its best class...like ever.
I think he was nudged gently to leave. I liked him... about the only thing I did not like was the Oklahoma fiasco. I like that he did not back down to the Big Ten over Covid...
Heard someone else speculate on that too. He seemed like a good fit in a number of ways from the limited info I was aware of.I wonder if Hank Bounds isn’t up there as well
MHO is his biggest mistake is extending frost's contract by two years which was completely unnecessary and unjustifiedUnless there are issues in the building we are not privy to...
