LINCOLN, Neb. (AP) — New Nebraska coach Matt Rhule has completed his staff with the hirings of Bob Wager as tight ends coach, Rob Dvoracek as linebackers coach and Garret McGuire as wide receivers coach.

Wager has been a Texas high school head football coach for more than 20 seasons. Dvoracek was on Rhule’s staff with the Carolina Panthers and worked for Rhule at Baylor. McGuire was an offensive assistant on Rhule’s staff with the Panthers. His father Joey is coach at Texas Tech.
