Devaney's rise from high school coach to Nebraska legend
Bob Devaney nearly quit coaching after 14 low paying high school seasons before a call from Duffy Daugherty launched his rise. He led Nebraska to an 11 0 1 record and the national championship after the Orange Bowl win over LSU, surpassing Notre Dame in the final AP poll. He started coaching in 1939 at $125 a month, then joined Michigan State as defensive backs coach before moving to Wyoming and finally Nebraska in 1963.
