So. Who are the three coaches Moos has been in touch with,

[huskerfan66]

And who else will he talk to. We know it's hoiberg. Altman? Who is the third about interest.

 

[bmguy88]

Tressel, Saban, Belichek

think it was said that Dana A. isn't in the mix today on 1620 per Bill, fwiw

 

[burkek]

Hoiberg
Altman
Lue

In the order of preference

 

[HuskerDana]

Fred. Hoiberg. Frederick C Hoiberg.

 

[maplesyrup95]

I don't know if Altman counts anymore, so I'd say it was 4 at one time.

Altman
Hoiberg
Musselman
Turgeon

 

[cdriftt24]

He said he hadn’t spoken to Altman, so I don’t know the other two and we may never know to be honest?

 

[HuskerBlueDevil]

Ernie Kent.

 

[JPR95]

You not funny

 

[tpmcg]

hoiberg
turgeon
lue

 

[Husker Sledge]

Phil Jackson, Pops and Pat Riley maybe?

 

[WestCoastCornhusker2]

And who else will he talk to. We know it's hoiberg. Altman? Who is the third about interest.

Lue, Hoiberg, and ah ah Jay Wright

 

[PeliniTheCrutch]

Cowher and Wannstedt

Agreed he's not in the mix. My question is based on what Moos said at his press conference. He said that he has been in contact with 3 coaches to guage interest in the job....at that point. Altman could be considered 1 and he said not interested. Contract extension.

 

[huskerfan66]

I guess i didn't hear that in the press conference. Maybe I missed it. He said he has talked to three to guage interest in the position. He did confirm that Hoiberg was one of them since he currently isn't coaching.... doesn't put him in a precarious situation.

Moos asked Altman even as long as last year so he would be one of the 3 or 4 since then... Altman was told he was going to get an extension after winning the PAC 12 tournament..

Don’t think Lue was one of the 3 or 4..believe that just wishful thinking because he played in Lincoln..

 

[Harry Caray]

My guess is Hoiberg, Oats, Sampson

 

[scarletred]

My guess is Hoiberg, Oats, Sampson

Don’t think you can go wrong with any of those 3..

 

[tpmcg]

My guess is Hoiberg, Oats, Sampson

any of those would work.
i think sampson stays south and would oats stay east...?

 

[scarletred]

Don’t know what Sampson makes at Houston, but Moos would pay him no less then 3M-3.5M. Which would be quite more here..

Rumor has it Hoiberg expecting 7 year for 30MM

 

[Tuco Salamanca]

I think Sampson stays at Houston. Tillman Fertitta has been instrumental in getting Sampson the facilities and support he needs to get UH to where it is now. When you hear Sampson talk, he says he wouldn't have taken the job if he didn't have those things, Fertitta made sure it happened, so I think there is a sense of loyalty there.

Edit - They are also working on a contract extension at Houston. Here is a quote from Sampson last week. - "There's a reason I stayed here," said Sampson, who was named Wednesday as one of four finalists for Naismith Coach of the Year. "I've learned over the years that you don't mess with happy. And I'm happy."

 

[Harry Caray]

Probably. But I think Sampson was likely on Moos' list because they worked together at Washington State. And Oats is probably on most AD's lists, and the fact that he signed a contact extension a couple weeks ago makes me think Moos might have reached out to him and he parlayed that into an extension.

 

[regoratsginrom]

Hoiberg. Hoiberg. Hoiberg.

Ooooo. I have no problem with 5-7 years. Frost is 7 years 35 million.

5 million would put him at the top of the BIG by a bunch. Near or close to the top in all of college BB.

I would say 7 years 23 million base with some very nice incentives. We're going to need the success to warrant the incentives to get close to the 4+ million area. Can bb generate that revenue? Not sure what the balance sheet looks like for BB

 

[tpmcg]

i wouldnt've excluded some of the other mid-major types (otzelberger, forbes, etc.), but i understand the reluctance to go that route, again...

 

[cdriftt24]

I read somewhere it would be around the 7 year 28 million dollar mark. $4 mil Per would be a top 15 salary in the NCAA for b-ball coaches. We are finally ponying up for a b-ball coach if that comes to fruition.

 

[brnred1989]

It’s Hoiberg and not close.

28 to 30 million over 7 years.

Altman wasn’t asked this time around.

Hoiberg
Sampson

Two for sure I’d imagine then probably Oats or Dawkins maybe.

It’s Hoiberg by a Lincoln country mile.

Worst kept secret in the state lol.

 

[nudan92]

Altman doesn’t want the Nebraska job. Still bitter.

 

[buckymel]

I think I can say for the Maryland fans I know that they would personally help Turge move if NU hired him.

 

[WestCoastCornhusker2]

Chris Beard, Ty Lue, Hoiberg

 

[AVeritas]

Who is Oats?

 

[burkek]

Moe iba

I never in my life heard anyone scream as loud as Moe, except maybe Cipriano

 

[ridge222]

Who is Oats?

You know, John Oats of Hall & Oats. Duh!!!

 

[scarletred]

Who is Oats?

His team was eliminated by texas Tech..

 

[ZJSARENOTFREE]

Who is Oats?

The great white Buffalo.

 

[AVeritas]

Thanks for heads-up on Oats. Nebraska can do better than the latest hot name youngster. It's time for UNL to turn the corner on basketball. Everything's in place for that to happen. The mayor makes perfect sense if the school is ready to get serious and invest in the game. Like you, I'm curious to see who is chosen.

Not much suspense.
