Steve Pederson Out at NU

The embattled Nebraska AD was officially ousted this afternoon at 2:15 p.m. according to the Lincoln Journal-Star.

Chancellor Harvey Perlman was quoted as saying:

"We are of course disappointed about the progress in our football program. Steve has done many positive things for Husker athletics during his tenure but I think only new leadership can objectively assess the state of our program and make the decisions necessary to move us forward."


Perlman is scheduled to speak to the media at 4:oo p.m.

I'm dying for some perspective and some commentary. Give us some, please! (p.s. It wasn't until this season that I thought Callahan should be placed on the hot seat. And I always sort of liked Peterson. He got rid of those stupid new uniforms and brought back herbie and hired doc sadler. all good calls i thought)
