Trev Alberts on the radio: AD says progress being made on football hires, addressing scheduling quirk and the ‘N’ brand | Football



Alberts said progress has been made in the hiring processes, but added that progress can be altered by a bevy of coaching changes currently taking place in the college football landscape. NU continues to talk to a lot of candidates, the AD added.

That noted, Alberts plans to keep his distance.

“I really want this staff to be Scott’s staff,” he said. “This has to be a staff that he and the rest of the staff is really comfortable with.”

Alberts was asked if it was important that any new additions have ties to the Huskers.

“I don’t think there has to be a direct connection with Nebraska,” he said. “I think cultural fit is really important.”

More from Alberts on his monthly radio show:

* After playing at Wisconsin and hosting Purdue this fall, Nebraska is currently scheduled to play in Madison again next year, and host Purdue. Alberts said that will be among the topics discussed at the upcoming Big Ten athletic directors meetings.

“I would say that there could be some changes,” he said. “There might be some alterations.”

* Alberts touched on the escalating coaching salaries in college football. In recent days Michigan State’s Mel Tucker and Penn State’s James Franklin received 10-year deals and Brian Kelly will be making around $9 million a year at LSU.
