The Nebraska football team is going to be going up against a former staffer who worked under Scott Frost when they take on the Wisconsin Badgers this year. Jack Cooper, who was with the Huskers for Frost’s first two years in Lincoln.
Cooper signed on with the new Badgers’ staff under Luke Fickell on Friday, marking a return to the FBS ranks after spending the last three years in the FCS. The real question is just why he chose to leave his coordinator job with the Rhode Island Rams to take on once again a position that won’t allow him to be a full-time on-field coach.
