Is Benhart really the best Nebraska can do at RT?

Apparently, I can't imagine Hunter Anthony could play much worse.
The offensive line play has truly been offensive.

Depth chart for Nebraska? You mean who's left?
This subject is just depressing. Honestly believe there are better high school OL's who might not have the size but are well coached, disciplined and athletic.
SF is the biggest fraud we have ever had. To think in year five we have a horse s... line is beyond belief. How could he so badly f... up with so many four and high three star players on the roster

Whomever the next coach is, he must invest in a BA oline and dline coach. We have talent. Heck we have kids who have started at other schools. But they can't here, ever with our uneven results. Seems truly weird to me
Grades per PFF thru last game
Tackles (out of 583)
* Bryce Benhart - #167
* Teddy P - #477
Guards (out of 592)
* Bando - #311
* Corcoran - #479
Center (out of 284)
* Hixson - #83
As I always say, PFF grades aren't the end all be all. But they give directional information that is helpful. I have found most times what I see with my eyes match up nicely with the grades. Sometimes, that isn't the case. I think with BB, there have been some eye-popping whiffs and in general, has shown no ability to move his feet. He's also not showing any grit/aggressiveness even at his size. But there are definitely others who are struggling along with him, believe it or not. To be honest, the entire group has played soft as a pillow. In general, I'm not seeing much difference in terms of communication, want to, and the ability to win one-on-one battles.
So perplexing it makes my head hurt.

Absolutely disagree with this statement. Benhart is very athletic. He may not have been very well coached. Do you absolutely think BB isn’t trying? Do you absolutely think that Raolia isn’t sitting in the film room talking about form, stance and positioning?
#13 OT in the nation his senior year, #139 ranked player overall, #2 player in the state of MN. Offered by Wisconsin, Tennessee, Michigan, Notre Dame, NW.
Please keep acting as if players and families don’t read this board!
Seriously BB foot movement does not reflect being athletic.
Maybe he is athletic and Sf and crew screwed him up but don’t pretend you can’t see reality on the field
I am not pretending his lateral movement isn’t poor … but maybe S&C has screwed that up. Maybe coaching has screwed that up. You do not get to be a highly coveted football player by virtually every P5 school in the region without being an athlete.
You just watch …. He will end up in the NFL.
But we keep talking about him on boards like this … he will likely be in the NFL from another school.

Farmer still listed as #1 safety not a good sign.
Color me shocked but i read an article (sorry, no link and can't find it now) where Benhart is, GASP, the #2 highest graded run blocking Olinemen for Nebraska. Of course, he made up for that by being worse pass blocking Olinemen (I believe he was rated last but can't remember exactly). Hixson was #2 pass blocking Olinemen and #1 run blocking linemen so that was a pleasant surprise. So as bad as he is in pass blocking, he is "supposedly" a much better run blocker.

Benhart is a very good run blocker. He struggles in pass protection though.
I'm shocked Prohazcka and Corcoran are where they are. I know Teddy is coming off an injury and really shouldn't be out there, so there's that.
