Hard to replace the veteran experience but one has to question why at this point afraid of the hard work required by a true D-line coach?

The No side believes that this will not hurt due to the fact that his heart was not in it. This is correct, but he was still with his size, ability, and experience better than the youngsters we will trot out there. Undoubtedly, this will temporarily hurt our defensive line performance.

It's now going to take until next season to see a good rushing defense. If certain players don't want to work hard, why did they even play football then?

Leaves us pretty young and without much depth. Looks like we have some good "young ones" but they will have to come along quickly.

anytime you lose a senior leader that, by all accounts, was having a great spring it will hurt. hopefully only short term though as the young talent ramps up. development is key.

Three year starter cannot be replaced instantly and it will slow the growth of the defense.

We are getting pretty thin and young at d-tackle(d-line as a whole really). Our strength from last year may become our weaknesses this year.

Finally Nebraska sport writers are taking off their rose glasses and viewing the Line issues which has been growing (girth not strength) since Solich days when I saw the first fat lineman.

Dana Holgorson doesn't know what a run first offense is. I love the aggressive nature of his offenses but we will NEVER be great without being run first. Run first and then air raid.

If we hadn't lost to Michigan I would have felt it was a one off. The lack of adjustments looks like a coaching issue with multiple coaches offense and defense. The offensive line is pathetic and needs an upgrade.

Nebraska has to prove it is not the same old story…until they do by definition it is.

Incompetent coaching staff, admitted out coached, the defensive coordinator didn’t even know who was playing in the second half

Need to come up with an offensive that fits the talent we have but doubt that will happen.

I feel it ease worries a LITTLE bit. I think he has already talked to his friend Pat, AD at Penn State, and was told that Penn State Alumni want someone more proven than Rhule. So, Rhule is way down the list.
