Playing career

Although he was only filling in as coach for one year while head coach William D. Weidein was on sabbatical, Schoeppel was not without football talent. He played football while attending the University of Nebraska and made “honorable mention” on one of Walter Camp’s first All-America football teams.

Ironically, Coach Weidein did not return after his one year sabbatical. After Schoeppel completed his one year as head coach, the school's program was taken over by W.C. "Jack" Riley.
