Just saw on twitter that Matt received a medical waiver and was granted a 6th year of eligibility. Good for him!

 
He played in a few. Mostly during mop up time, iirc.

His extra year come from before he was at NU. I don't know the details but his father became ill which led him to transfer to the JUCO to be closer to home but that cost him a year of eligibility.

 
A little more detail from 247:

Finnin graduated from high school in 2010 and redshirted that fall at Western Michigan, before returning home to help take care of his ailing father. He enrolled at Eastern Illinois in the fall of 2011, but returned home again, playing at College of DuPage for one season before signing with Nebraska as part of the 2013 recruiting class. The additional year granted by the NCAA was for the season Finnin spent taking care of his father, who passed away last spring.
The 6-foot-7, 305-pound offensive tackle appeared in four games last season for Nebraska, but was firmly in Nebraska's two-deep by the end of the season and in bowl practices.

Dont forget a dabble of Farmer here and there. Seriously, if Moore can come in and start as a true freshman, pretty sure Farmer can come in and at the least provide legit minutes.

I think he was mainly looking at tackles.

Sure seems like Farmer could come in and play but with two Seniors returning as starters ahead of him plus decent depth behind them, I'd be OK if he redshirts then starts for four years.

That depends on who are the upper classmen with Farmer compared to Moore.

Agreed. Alex Lewis, IMO, is already a pro-typical offensive lineman and could be a starter if he gets here.
