Forrest E. Behm, the most inspiring walk-on in Nebraska football history and believed to be the oldest College Football Hall-Famer, died Monday in Corning, N.Y. He was 95. One of the most successful athletic/academic/business leaders in American history, Behm also was a first-team All-America tackle on Nebraska’s first-ever bowl team that lost to Stanford, 21-13, in the 1941 Rose Bowl.
