I am okay with hiring many good assistant coaches to be analysts.

This guy looks like he could be the extra assistant when that gets approved. Hmmmm

I have read (maybe from this site, maybe from another site, can't remember) that Alabama has like 8 former coaches in the Tide athletic department and they're all analysts.

That's 8 former football coaches on top of the Tide's NCAA allotted full time-coaches and graduate assistants.

Often wondered if that is true, and if it is, and the NCAA allows it, then why doesn't Nebraska do something similar?

Do we have 8 former coaches in the athletic department working as analysts?

(I am not sure actually how many the Tide have) 1 < 8. Stay tuned for more riveting facts....

They already said they plan to promote Tavita for that.

Tyler Eiffert is a pretty big feather in this guys cap.

Bama is also the most successful program in the country with arguably the greatest coach of all time. Every coach not working as a coach for Alabama knows that it's a better move for their career than 90% of the coaching jobs out there. Look at Sark. I'm sure there are others who have seen a boost to their career by just working with Nick Saban. That up close experience with greatness is absolutely going to rub off on you and help you in the long run.

What you're saying is true, but isn't really germane to my questions.

1) Is having that many analysts (8 or however many the Tide have) in your athletic department, exclusively for football, legal as far as the NCAA is concerned?

2) If yes, how many does Nebraska have?

Clearly we have one right now. Do we have any others?

I get that. Unless I am misunderstanding, this guy is leaving a AC job to be an analyst here? Hence the "hmmmm".

He was let go from ND, I think (I think they had a lot of transition there as well recently, with pressure on Brian Kelly). It sounds to me like they want a guy who can play some recruiting/ST/etc roles without being an official coach.
