Nebraska head coach Mike Riley announced Sunday that he has dismissed special teams coordinator Bruce Read from the Huskers’ staff, effective immediately.
“I want to thank Bruce for his hard work and contributions to our football program over the past two years,” Riley said in a statement. “I also appreciate the contributions he made while a member of my staffs prior to Nebraska. As we continue to build our program with the pursuit of championships at the forefront of everything we do, we will look for a great coach, recruiter and teacher to join our staff.”
Read served as the Huskers’ special teams coordinator for two seasons, joining Riley from Oregon State.
