It’s hard for me not to doom and gloom about this, but if I’m being honest, Trev has always been a weird mixed bag for me. I remember being so excited to have a Husker on ESPN years ago, but he was always so snooty on the show and his exit from there was so embarrassing. He clearly has a huge ego. And then he obviously ruffled a lot of feathers with some of his decisions at UNO.
He’s mostly been great as AD here but it’s not like he’s handled everything perfectly. No matter what went down in the Ashley Scoggin case, he did not acquit himself well in that situation. And the stadium project is a nice idea, but it seemed like a really rocky path forward for it. I can’t help but think that money could be spent better and without pissing off so many season ticket holders.
Listening to Sipple on his podcast tonight, sounds like Trev had tried to get other jobs before this. He wanted to be conference commissioner and he wanted to be the head of the college playoff. He’s just in it for himself and was using Nebraska to climb the ladder. There are other good people out there for the job. Please please please just hire someone good.
