Abstract:

This critical incident represents a real situation in which Mike Riley, head coach of the University of Nebraska at Lincoln Cornhuskers football team, faces a dilemma. His popular and successful assistant coach, Keith Williams, was arrested for driving while intoxicated, following a minor traffic accident two weeks prior to the start of the 2016 football season. Before joining the Nebraska team in 2015, Williams was convicted of driving while intoxicated in 2004 and 2009. Coach Riley must decide what action to take following Williams’ arrest.
