Nebraska DT sentenced to nine months probation for DUI

In early December, Nebraska DT Baker Steinkuhler was arrested on suspicion of driving under the influence and blowing twice the legal limit into a breathalyzer test.

Now, nearly a month later, a Lancaster County Judge has ruled that Steinkuhler (which, oddly enough, seems to be a fitting last name given the reason for his legal trouble) will face 9 months probation, a $400 fine and will have his driver’s license revoked for 60 days.

Steinkuhler, who started in all 13 regular season games for the Huskers, was suspended for Nebraska’s 19-7 loss to Washington in the Holiday Bowl.

“He is a tremendous young man who made a mistake in judgment,” head coach Bo Pelini said at the time of Steinkuhler’s charge.
