Steven M. Sipple: As Moos expresses confidence in Hoiberg, a former Husker sees red flags

Nebraska athletic director Bill Moos chuckles as he recalls a certain bumper sticker that appeared during the early 1970s when he played college football for moribund Washington State.

The sticker exclaimed in bold letters, "Win Cougars!"

Underneath the two words, it said, "Please?"

"How do you think it felt going to practice and seeing about 12 of those in the parking lot?" Moos said Friday. "Oh, Lord."

"You've got to be a little crazy to keep from going insane," he added.

Here's hoping Nebraska men's basketball coach Fred Hoiberg has a good sense of humor.
