Huge Payday for Alberts

[Bkasl]

Nebraska athletic director receives massive pay boost, 8-year contract extension

The contract extension more than doubles Trev Alberts' pay and provides him several financial incentives and bonuses if he stays at the helm of Husker Athletics through 2031.

Several of this board's member's heads just exploded

Nebraska athletics: Nothing but winning (ie earning). It's not real money. The real money is the university budget that is under threat of cuts every year. They can pay Trev any number, I'm numb to it.

It can't be easy to have the worst combined men sports programs in all of D1, Trev just makes it look easy

No chance this thread blows up. Will be calm and rational.

I like that: "Nothing but winning". Very accurate for the majority of men's sports.

Out of curiosity, did you play football at Doane? Not trying to out you or anything!

I'm fine with it. When we get rolling in FB and Fred takes us dancing every year all will be good. Throw in Bolt taking us to the CWS and Manning and the boys running through the Big 10 he will deserve it all and then some.

Husker Wrestling program is TOP 7!!!! No respect given to Coach Mark? Future hall-of-famer!

fans who get in their feelings about how much coaches/admin are being paid as if it's coming out of their own bank account are weird.

unless you're a major donor to the university, your opinion on the matter is worthless at best.

But by all means post here about it repeatedly. It doesn't get old at all.

I get more enjoyment out of sports than I do knee replacement surgeries, and I'm not out here bitching about how much hospital administrators make.

WVB and Ten Pin Bowling. TA striking while the iron is hot.

Meh

 

[ivan brunetti]

Football is still down, but volleyball is way, WAY up! The man is earning his raise!

 

[EmormousDouchebag]

Ohhh boy. When I saw the headline on main I was expecting this.
What do I think about it? Tell us your insights and wisdom you're known for you say?

I don't give 2 shits about things I cant change nor want to change.
I DO know I have a jumbo tub O popcorn at my side right now.

Was he being recruited to go elsewhere? Reading the articles make it appear so....

It does matter because it makes it a lot harder to get rid of someone you're overpaying who has a large contract.

My first thought

Seems like another quick, underserved instance of competing against ourselves

Not sure there’s a single program that’s improved during trev’s tenure. Certainly none that people actually care about

Just stupid. Hasn't done anything yet to deserve it. This signals we're fine with mediocrity and we'll overpay you for it. If Rhule doesn't work out, I might be done with this program. I'll find a program that actually wants to compete and win.

Good!!

This sucks for Trev. Now that everyone knows his salary, he's never going to get a deal on a vehicle ever again.

As Jae would say, it's on brand.

 

[SickOfPractice]

With the Governor's announcement of the termination of remote working options for state workers (does that include Trev?) I'm sure he could use this extra gas money.

You think after this raise Trev will drive a gas fueled vehicle? PFFFT pleb.

Yeah, thanks for hiring John Cook, Trev.

It's mutual robbery. The university systems across the country parttake. Everyone wins.

 

[Walleye79]

Good. Go get your money Trev. Love seeing the meltdown of the snowflakes in this board.

This is very very true

Racket all around

More greasing, like the number on the stadium renovation

 

[TampaBaySkers]

Must be nice to have your salary double while producing zero results..

Pretty sure very nice cars are part of his compensation package. That Country Club membership.

absolutely.. the outgoing guy greases it for the guy he's leaving behind.. it's what the old boy's network is all about.

I do think it's interesting that they now post his salary and that it's doubled in price. They don't want anyone looking into that stadium renovation.. so better make it look like you can afford that lifestyle you're already living.

It's not just UNL, it's like this at every University, every city government, state government, etc.. America is just as corrupt as anyone else.. we just sell it better to the sheeple.
