Nebraska Football’s Matt Rhule Has Assistant Resign

By Kaleb Henry Jul 5, 2024 | 7:28 PM

Nebraska football is down a coach with the season beginning next month.

An NU spokesperson confirms to KLIN that Evan Cooper has resigned. The news was first reported by ESPN’s Pete Thamel.

Cooper coached the secondary and was the defensive pass game coordinator for the Huskers. He was entering his second season in Lincoln and 12th consecutive season of working under Matt Rhule.

Matt Rhule must now make a summer staffing change for the second consecutive year, after having to replace tight ends coach Bob Wager last July.
