π Bob Wager Drops the Ball: DUI Leads to Sideline Exit for Nebraska’s Tight Ends Coach! π
TL:DR; Nebraskaβs tight ends coach, Bob Wager, peace outs πΆββοΈ after a not-so-cool DUI incident. An epic coaching legacy gets a twist, and the Cornhuskers name Josh Martin as the new main man! π
Late night shenanigans π ended in a plot twist for Bob Wager, the renowned tight ends coach for Nebraska, who, instead of scoring touchdowns, scored a DUI. But wait…how much of that “celebration juice” π· was involved? Letβs spill the tea! β
According to the buzzing streets of Lincoln, Nebraska, Bob was flagged down by our vigilant boys in blue π around 1:30 a.m. (Party too hard, Bob?). Tests showed his blood-alcohol level was doing its own touchdown dance πΊ, reaching a whopping 0.15 or higher. Add refusal of a breath test, denying a chemical test, and keeping that party going with an open container, and youβve got a playbook that no coach would ever draft!
Bob, ever the sport, owned up to his error with a heartfelt fumble recovery, stating, βIt is with great remorse that I resign from my position as assistant football coach at the University of Nebraska.β He went on to express his regret and apologies, especially to those who are now side-eyeing π the legend. But let’s rewind πΌ! Before this hiccup, Wager had a record so bright it could blind ya! He was a game-changer at Arlington (Texas) Martin High School, where he led the team to the playoffs EVERY. SINGLE. YEAR for 17 years. Yup, you heard right β 17 years! π 210 games won and a school record. Wager wasn’t just playing; he was dominating.
But lifeβs a game of change-ups and audibles! So, who’s stepping up to fill those (big) coaching shoes? Enter: Josh Martin π! Formerly rockin’ the special teams analysis at Nebraska, and having worked his magic with tight ends at SMU and Arizona State, Martin’s got the chops! π
So hereβs the million-dollar question: Is Nebraska ready for the Martin Era or is Wagerβs sudden exit leaving bigger cleat marks than we thought? π€¨
And, because we love leaving you hanging (just a tad!) β Do coaching missteps off the field really influence their legacy or just make for some spicy locker room talk? What do y’all think? π€
