The NFL made him a top-10 pick, yet somehow the coaches and media didn't make him 1st team All B1G.

I understand, but there was soooo much talent on that team it would have been all All Big Ten. Someone had to get screwed so that Dave Winfield's kid or some underachieving Michigan loud mouth could make the team.

Yet another Buckeye who was deemed worthy of a first round selection by the NFL but not deemed worthy of an All-Big Ten selection by coaches or media (This is Ohio State; I'm only counting first-team selections as All-Big Ten or All-American)
