I didn't realize Bob was AD at the same time he was coach.  Is that
accurate?  Or is that his whole employment tenure with the University?

> AD's tend to last for a max of 10 years, don't they?). 

Harvey Perleman is the 19th Chancellor of the University of Nebraska,
going back to 1869.  Average tenure, 7 years.

Nebraska has had 12 Athletic Directors, though I'm not sure when the
first one was named.  Let's say 1900.  That would mean the average
tenure has been about 8 years.

Here are the last 4:

Tippy Dye        (1961-1967)
Bob Devaney      (1967-1993)
Bill Byrne       (1993-2002)
Steve Pederson   (2002-present)
