Nebraska has been in need of a new athletic director since firing Shawn Eichorst in September. They have now filled the position with an AD from another Power 5 school in Washington State's Bill Moos.

The hire seems to be getting good reviews so far too:
Bill Moos is indeed the guy. Good hire. Antithesis of Shawn Eichorst in terms of personality. Football guy through and through.

Bill Moos makes a lot of sense for Nebraska. Veteran AD (Montana/Oregon/Wazzu), good fundraiser, solid with the media, quality hiring record

Eichorst was responsible for hiring current football coach Mike Riley, which was unpopular at the time and looks even worse with the team sitting on a 3-4 record with a loss to Northern Illinois on the record.
