You can add him yourself.  Why is this so hard?!?
Lazy AF.  No other explanation.

I skipped a bunch of pages, but how do you not have Shane Lechner as punter?  I never even heard of the guy listed, but I confess I couldn't tell you who our current punter is right now.  Guy played in the NFL too until just a few years ago, well into the 2010's.

That last LB spot is tough.
Fitzgerald, Wilson, Kearse, Marvin Jones, Derrick Brooks, Barrow or Armstead, Simeon Rice, Alberts.....
Not that I followed them much, but wasn't Katzenmoyer (or however you spelled his name) a great LB at the time as well?  Ohio State guy.

because you didn't put him on the team

I never even heard of the guy listed, but I confess I couldn't tell you who our current punter is right now.  Guy played in the NFL stop stop stop  too until just a few years ago, well into the 2010's.

Tyrone Carter was a CB, which is weird because he was such a good tackler.

I know he was lauded and all, but I saw Deon Grant A LOT, and he was a bitch.  He didn't like to hit.  He's not going on my team, but you guys can do what you want.

Shit, with this defense, I don't even know if we need safeties.  
We have both a quick/twitchy pass-rusher and a big-bodied one.
We have a behemoth at DT, and a quick, slippery one.
There's 2 MLBs who will track down everyone in sight plus a freak just to unleash.
And 2 legendary CBs who found being All-American at one position so easy, they played some offense, too.

I'm thinking of Tripp Welborne of UM at safety.  He was unanimous AA in both 89 and 90.  He was also their punt returner, pretty rare for a safety.

he was a phenomenal player, but more of an 80s guy as he played 2 years in the 80s and only one in the 1990s- and suffered a catastrophic career ending knee injury in 1990 which made him free fall in the NFL draft from probably a top 10 pick to end of the 7th round. believe he re-injured the same knee twice in the pros and never played a down. and this was way before the knee surgeries were anywhere near as good as they are today.

I know all about Lechler.   You could've added him.  Maynard had a decorated college career and let's face it cool to get a MAC player on here.

The only 2 Thorpe winners at safety were Colorado State's Greg Myers and Florida's Lawrence Wright.  Wright was a HUGE hitter, but had zero INTs in the year he won the award.  

I can add them both if no one has anyone better.

i'm not trying to be homer central on this, but the team of the 90s would be justified with 3 guys.  if you want to add Mike Brown, Nebraska.
one time AA, yes,  he played right out of the gates as a Freshman mostly CB, and probably started forty games at least at Safety. all four years, i think he probably had 10 ints.

nothing wrong with Wright and Evans though.

Now I'm curious about this Evans guy..... lol

.
Genuine question:  what is the gap between Mike Brown and Ralph Brown?
