Nebraska has hired Washington athletic director Troy Dannen as the school's new athletic director, it was announced Wednesday.
Dannen's deal is expected to be for six years, sources told ESPN.
The hiring of Dannen gives Nebraska an immediate replacement for Trev Alberts, who left for Texas A&M last week. It also gives the school an experienced athletic director who brings a strong football background and both Midwest ties and immediate familiarity with the Big Ten.
"Joining the Nebraska family is truly an honor," said Dannen in a statement.
