A source close to Dannen said the decision was "deeply personal," as both his and his wife's entire family are in Iowa.

And that's 3 times longer than Proctor was a Hawkeye............LOLZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZ!
Young athletes aren't compiling the lists of blueblood programs. People who work for ESPN or Sports Illustrated, or whoever, compile them. Nebraska is still on those lists.
Knebbers went cheap and hired a guy who spent most of his career in the American Athletic Conference, good luck with that.
Bro, Yale and Harvard are also on those antiquated lists.
Give it another 5-10 years and another head coach or two, and you will finalize your transformation to being Minnesota 2.0.
Here is the most recent article I could find on the subject (from last fall):
Nebraska (BLUEBLOOD STATUS - NOT SECURE)
Nebraska is slowly slipping away like Minnesota did a few generations ago.
They truly haven't found anyone to be the worthy successor to Tom Osborne. Scott Frost went from claiming national championship glory at UCF to not being able to go to a bowl at Nebraska.
For those under 30, Nebraska football is predominantly associated with mediocrity. The last time Nebraska participated in a bowl game, the current 2024-2026 recruiters were only 8-10 years old.Personally, I hope that Nebby fans and the media never alter their expectations of their program. Their persistent denial of their position within the current landscape of college football plays a significant role in the downfall of their program. And I love it lol.
I will give the new AD credit. He is an Iowa boy.
I witnessed and attended games during all 5 of the Husker's national titles and that's all that matters to me. Nobody is alive that witnessed any of Yale's, Harvard's, or Minnesota's national Titles. BTW, since the era of leather helmets ended, Michigan has a whole 2 national titles.
IIRC Minnesota won its last one in 1960.
BTW prior to the playoffs the championships that Yale, Harvard, Minnesota and Nebraska claim were all awarded not really earned on the field. An asterisk should be placed next to any school that claims a mythical Natty if it was "awarded" prior to the playoffs.
But Nebraska is on the list. And Nebraska is still on every list. Just as I factually stated. You're letting your Huskers derangement system get the better of you.
You kind of lose that blue blood status when you haven't been to a bowl game or had a winning record since... when... Clinton was President?
Dude, we all get it. Nebraska had a great run 30-40-50 years ago. But it’s over and has been for awhile.
But... you just wait until next year!
Braska had basically 1 team to beat every year. That was it.
It will be when that attendance really starts to wane. The older crowd dies off and the younger gens don't care as much.
Just admit it bro, the red balloon has gone limp.
You ain't got no helium in your red balloon any more.
Weird that he would make a downward move like that, but congratulations on getting another Iowa native to help you out with your sportsball programs.
Quite the downward career path going from UNI to eventually Nebraska!
Family in Iowa has to be the motivation.

Still a blueblood. I wasn't arguing with anyone about what's happened since like 2012. I was arguing that anyone who says that Nebraska isn't a blueblood is wrong.
Trying soooo hard to stay relevant. Years worth of 4-8, 5-7 records and no bowl games says hello.
The only media outlets that will claim Knebbers is a blueblood is the Omaha World Herald and the LIncoln Journal Star, and perhaps a half dozen bi-monthly newspapers like the Crab Orchard Chronicle or Colon Crier.
In reality Little Debbie is not considered a blue blood since the turn of the century.
lol…good one. Iowa football team will still beat Nebraska with, or without, Proctor. You can book it.
lol…he was a former UNI AD. Don’t worry about Iowa football, other than the Hawks will continue to regularly beat Nebraska.
However, all those years in the old Big 8 really over-inflated Nebraska’s historical win/loss record. So, adjusting for that…Nebraska is not really a “true” blue blood.
Trev Alberts GONE! Scott Frost GONE! Nebraska fans, yeah! Like that is what is best for Nebraska!
You must have consumed a lot of Ben Gay by now then. What kind of hearing aids you got?
I'm 64 and living my dream retirement life. You just keep working your a$$ off to fund my social security and medicare, while I hit the beach!
Well lets see...between 1970 and 1996 the Big Ten won a total of 0 national titles...that would be zippo, nada, the big GOOSE EGG. Meanwhile during that same period Oklahoma won 3, Colorado won 1, and Nebraska won 4. For those scoring at home that would be 8 national titles for the Big 8 and a GOOSE EGG for the Big Ten
Not won because that was before the playoffs, what you meant to say was "awarded". Prior to the playoffs those are simply mythical awarded championships.
If you have to tell someone that you are relevant...you aren't.
