By the end of the year, Cam was one of the best linemen on the team, and did very well against tough d-lines in Wisconsin and Iowa.

I honestly don't know if that says more about Cam, or the level of talent on the O-Line last year...fingers crossed that Benhart is the real deal.

I cant be as critical of the line, even last year. It was not good; not up to pipeline standards by any stretch.  But I really feel the entire line improved markedly last season and I have confidence it will be that much better this fall.  I expect it will be about middle of the pack in the Big Ten and better than the past 4 years NU lines overall.  Further, it will shock me if the line play is “the problem” should the offense sputter.  

Maybe I am too optimistic but I always am hopeful for the Huskers.

I knew that's how someone would take my post.  Yes, the rest of the o-line was not great, but Cam wasn't a big issue by the end of the season.

I certainly hope so. Farniok moving to G is a good start; he's a better fit there and opens up Benhart on the edge. 

 
Back to the topic of the thread.... 

The general consensus around Fidone is that he is ours to lose. Should we lock him in, does that sway other regional prospects to reconsider (Bollers)? He strikes me as a quietly influencing type versus Lutovsky's constantly vocal peer recruiting.

I think it also says something about our oline coach. He took a guy with good measureables and by the end the year turned him into a pretty good center. Now ideally a few years down the road when we have depth. That raw guy won’t have to play and he can develop behind the scenes instead of on national tv for all to see, then when someone plays they are a dude 

 
This young man is going to be a Husker great - he fits Frost’s ideal for a game changer TE imo.  Refine his routes and get his steps down right and he will be Mr TD.
