Redshirt freshman linebacker Andrew Ward has announced his intention to leave the Nebraska football team. Ward announced he was planning to transfer just hours after center Mike Decker said he was quitting football entirely.
Before Ward made his announcement, Decker was likely the biggest hit to the roster. Husker fans were already making themselves feel better by reminding themselves Decker was hurt and that there are options to replace him.
There are certainly options to replace Ward as well, but this transfer might be the first where Cornhusker fans might be wondering exactly what happened.
