id put schlegs ahead of wilhelm. though im sure im in the minority there. oh and you have 1 cb and 3 safties... that d strikes me as a tad problematic :wink:. fox or ay is a tough choice. but i think id go with fox and push allen off the list. i really wish allen had another year of eligibility.

Great team/selections. Kirk Barton will be a three year starter by the time he is through. He might be a good choice for the final OL selection.

Barton will be a four year starter.

As much as Smith has done already, I'd put Krenzel #1 FOR NOW. He won a National Championship, and was only a few plays away (at scUM) from a second national championship appearance.

I'd also probably put Andy Groom ahead of BJ. Tough choice, close race, but I'd give the edge to Groom.

Will Allen was an All-American... Tough to push him off the list.

Clarett should be in, and Ted Ginn Jr. may very well have that second WR spot depending on how he does this season.

Holmes dominated UM in 03 & 04, and finished with a clutch TD in 05. Ginn has a loooooong way to go to think about passing Holmes... especially with the 2 years of comparisons we were able to witness.

We'll have to see, but I think Ginn will continue having performances like the games he had against Michigan and ND. If he averages 100 yards a game receiving this year, I'd put him in the top two without hesitation, knocking Holmes off. Sprinkle in a 200-yard game or two (with Ginn it could easily be two long runs and six or seven other receptions) and a few clutch catches, and I'd put him at No. 1.

Those clutch catches have to be there though, since it'll take a lot to knock off the guy at the receiving end of the Holy Buckeye play.

Fuck Clarett. Put Wells in.

I know... I know... he hasn't even had a single college snap...

Wasn't there another Wells Tressel's first year... you know, the one who torched scUM for 3 TD's... someone by the name of Jonathan Wells! He was one of the bright spots of the offense that year. But as for an All-Tressel team, you'd have to put Clarett in as 1st team and either J. Wells or Pittman as 2nd.

RB- Lydell Ross :biggrin:

honestly though, I'm in the MoC camp. I like BJ over Andy. As far as the argument over the secondary goes, they were all awesome. that just goes to show OSU's ability to field a great secondary year in year out.
