Trev Alberts officially leaving Nebraska for Texas A&M

NU is now searching for both a system president and Husker athletic director

Trev Alberts is heading south.

The Nebraska athletic director informed staff via email that he was resigning his position for the same role at Texas A&M.

"I am very sorry for the time and that I was not able to communicate these changes to you in person," Alberts said. "Tough decisions will need to be made, unity of vision and high execution will be necessary, but I am confident that leadership in Nebraska will rise to the occasion."

In his statement with Texas A&M, Alberts also spoke on "leadership" and "vision".

"Leadership matters now more than ever before," Alberts said. "My interest in Texas A&M is not only due to its prestigious reputation but also because of President (Mark) Welsh’s compelling vision in which, I believe, Athletics can play a small but important role in helping Texas A&M achieve unprecedented success."

Alberts had been at Nebraska since 2021. According to his amended contract in 2023, NU is owed more than $4 million in damages for his departure prior to Dec. 31, 2024.
