Nebraska regents propose putting Husker Athletics under purview of system president

Two members of the University of Nebraska Board of Regents have proposed making system President Ted Carter responsible for providing policy direction and oversight to Husker Athletics.

Lincoln Regent Tim Clare and Regent Rob Schafer of Beatrice have recommended the change, which would put regents closer to the decision-making process of the athletics office. Trev Alberts is the current NU athletic director and has praised Carter's leadership.

The proposed bylaw revision will go before regents at a 9 a.m. special meeting in Varner Hall on May 31 as an informational item. It will then be put to a vote of the board on June 22.
