“I’m close with coach Chinander, coach Dawson, and coach Frost,” Lenhardt said. “They have been very consistent throughout all four years of my high school career. When I get there they plan on using me like an edge hybrid, and some outside linebacker too.”

The IMG Academy standout joins coach Frost and the Cornhuskers’ No. 34 class in the 2023 Consensus Team Rankings. 

Lenhardt currently ranks as the No. 305 Player in the On3 Consensus, a complete and equally weighted industry-generated average that accounts for all four major recruiting services. He also tabs in at the No. 36 edge, and the No. 61 player in the state of Florida.
