    From the Omaha World Herald:

    UNO Football: Leipold is leaving

    BY ROB WHITE




    WORLD-HERALD STAFF WRITER


    Lance Leipold, UNO's associate head coach and offensive coordinator, will become the head coach at Division III Wisconsin-Whitewater, according to a person with knowledge of the hiring.

    Leipold was a recording-setting quarterback at UWW from 1983 through 1986 and was inducted into the school's athletic hall of fame in 2003.

    He will replace Bob Berezowitz, who announced his retirement before the season. The Warhawks reached the Division III championship game for a second consecutive season, capping a 21-year career for Berezowitz, who compiled a 158-73-4 record.

    Attempts to reach Leipold were unsuccessful. The person said Leipold would be named coach on Tuesday and introduced at a press conference on Wednesday.

    Leipold began his coaching career at UWW in 1987, spent 1989 as an assistant at Doane, then went back to UWW as offensive coordinator in 1990. He also spent time as a graduate assistant at Wisconsin before beginning a seven-year stint as a UNO assistant in 1994, where he coached running backs and served as the recruiting coordinator. He was also the offensive coordinator in 2000.

    He then moved on to Nebraska as a football administrative assistant, maintaining the recruiting video database and assisting with on-campus recruiting while directing the Big Red Football School. He returned to UNO in the spring of 2004.
