I didn't remember seeing anyone send this article from the OWH about why the O-Line is in the state that it is in.
WARNING: This is not to start another blame Callahan email chain, but it does do a very good job of looking at why NU has less offensive line experience than any Top 10 team.

Last Saturday, Nebraska's starting offensive line consisted of a junior-college transfer (Yoshi Hardrick), two walk-ons (Mike Caputo and Spencer Long), a true sophomore (Andrew Rodriguez) and a true freshman (Tyler Moore). The Husker line has eight collective years of Division I experience, four of which belong to one player (Caputo).
Had we been able to keep that 2007 class together and get Robinson to choose his State over his father our potential starting offensive line could have been Steinkuhler, Hoch, Robinson, Reiff and Caputo — all fourth- and fifth-year players.
Something to think about.
