    Affirmative. Big loss but not a surprise.

          Wish he would have held out for a better gig than Nebraska, but good for him. Wish him the best.

            What role is he taking at Nebraska?

            Best of luck to him, but I'm sorry to lose him. Wasn't he the lead recruiter for Deon Mitchell?

                  That really sucks. He has done some great things for us during his tenure at UNI, and he will be hard to replace. Going to Nebraska is disappointing but, you cannot hardly fault him for wanting to move up, assuming it is a better/higher paying job.

                  Anybody have any ideas as to who we will bring in?

                      I propose we go after Greg McDermott for co-head coach with Jake. If he happens to bring any recruits with him in the process, that's an added bonus. Open up those pocketbooks, boosters!!!

                      Find out what the other team wants to do, then take it away from them.

                        I expect an outside hire. My guess is another young guy with aspirations to get to the top.

                            I know you are kidding but it wouldn't be bad if we could find a former post player to come in to work with our posts...and if he were to happen to have any son's, better get them enrolled before Creighton comes to offer a job, er, scholarship.

                              Are you kidding me? What a bummer. Two good assistants in consecutive years. I know cash may be tight, but I sure hope we don't settle.
