Nebraska honored Husker legend and former offensive line coach Milt Tenopir on Saturday by leaving a seat open in the press box.

The Huskers also invited members of the media to leave notes for Tenopir in a notebook sitting at his seat. The notebook will later be delivered to Tenopir’s family.
Tenopir left a lasting impact on the Nebraska community, which has been highlighted in the many tributes written in his honor. One of those tributes is from our own Mike Babcock (and is worth the read).
A classy tribute for a very deserving man.
