Trev Alberts to Texas A&M

The only board member I know anything about is Stark.
I have no idea what they did or didn't do to create an enivronment that President's would want to leave or that would piss off Alberts. I can't even definitively say he's concerned.
Carter I can write off to 'Better opportunity'. I'm realistic enough to know a University President position at Ohio State is a bigger peach than UNL. Did the Board of Regents have anything to do with him looking? I have no idea.
Why we don't have a permanent President in place does likely lie in their collective laps. Aside from that, who knows?
I think it's premature to bash Trev. For all we know A&M could have come to him and said we are willing to double your salary if you agree to be our AD. How many people on here would flat out say no? Most likely, an agent is involved, and will use it to squeeze more out of Nebraska, and if they don't get what they want, he will go. If it turns out Nebraska was willing to meet his demands, and he still leaves, then it's time to say don't let the door hit you in the ass.
Hope this isn't true... has to be a money grab.
Even if he stays, his loyalty to Nebraska will be in question from this point forward. We thought he was "one of us", but the fact that he is even entertaining this move after just signing an extension suggests that his Husker loyalty doesn't run as deep as we thought.

I'm going to believe he's staying until he says otherwise. I don't know all his motivations, but he's a perfect fit for us and is doing a great job. And putting out the long lasting Nebraska dumpster fire is as big a professional accomplishment as any an ambitious AD might achieve anywhere.
Don't agree at all. Tom Osborne almost went to Colorado before he became the ultimate "one of us".
I think it’s a chess match to get the leadership in check
Osborne didn't play for Nebraska. And he almost took the CU job because the fans had turned on him because (at the time) he couldn't beat Oklahoma. That's a very different dynamic.
Quite possibly.
'Hey guys, we've got something good going here. Let's pull our collective heads out and do something with it'.
You may be right.
I would imagine that Texas A&M is offering him 4 to 5 times the salary.
People were trying to run him out of town though. Trev seems to be the people's AD.
