Since we haven't played the 2008 season yet, I can't really compare the 2008 JL with the 2002 MW. JL already has the better overall career, but MW had just about the best senior season that any OSU MLB ever had. BB73 made a great point about MW benefitting playing behind an all-world DL, so that's something I'll have to keep in mind when watching JL's this season. Right now, I'd say it's a toss up...

I gotta go with the Kaiser. I think he is probably the 2nd most underrated player in the JT era after Pittman. He just made plays. Loved his intensity.

The acrobatic INT was against Washington State I believe. Tipped the ball up then dove backwards to catch it.

Wilhelm was an intimidator. Loved watching him play in the MNC game. Nobody from Miami wanted a part of him.

JL is no slouch obviously.
