Finishing where we did in football, and men's and women's basketball is all that I need to know. Those are the premier sports, followed by volleyball (at least here in Nebraska) and then baseball.

I'd say if this metric is an overall grade of the Athletic Director, it seems about right to me. Not really horrible, but certainly not elite.

Volleyball is way ahead of women's basketball in the hierarchy of sports at Nebraska. Nebraska volleyball is a premier team that competes with anyone in the country. Football, men's and women's basketball have been in volleyballs rear view mirror in terms of results for quite a few years. Football will always be king with the majority of fans but volleyball consistently produces on the court. Winking

all the sports are weighted the same when in reality the only revenue sports ... and frankly the only ones that 95% of the people care about are football and men's basketball. Iowa finished near the bottom of the BIG in these rankings but I would argue that they had a more successful athletic year than Nebraska based on the play of their football and men's basketball teams. The other sports are gravy.

Obviously you have a very good point.... But Hawk fans brag about their wrestling program which is a "grave sport"
so what the hell,all our programs is being based upon when it comes to the Directors cup.
