The Nebraska associate athletic director who oversees basketball says the search for a new coach to replace the fired Doc Sadler will focus on proven program builders. Marc Boehm said Saturday that he and athletic director Tom Osborne met Friday night to begin their work. Boehm said many of the potential candidates will be coaching teams in the NCAA tournament, so it might take anywhere from a week to a month to bring someone on board. Sadler earned $900,000 a year. Boehm said no salary range has been set for the next coach, but he added that Nebraska would be “very competitive.” The Cornhuskers were 12-18 overall and finished last in their first season in the Big Ten, causing Sadler’s ouster. He was fired on Friday after Nebraska’s season ended in a first-round loss in the Big Ten tournament.
