I know Damon Moore as a safety would be in the conversation as greatest ever DBs in C-Bus.had 2 pick 6's 12 career pix and 191 career solo tackles 2nd among all DBs and 267 total tackles 17 for a loss.I don't know if this fits into your game

Neal colzie was good also 1974 AA and all Big Ten his Jr/Sr yrs.He also racked up 855 career punt return yds

Malcolm Jenkins won the Thorpe Award and 2 time 1st team AA

Mike Doss was another,twice lead the team in tackles and was 2nd a third time.In 2002 lead the Buckeyes to their 1st NC in 34 yrs.But you have a good list

Hmmmmm........what if I did all-time teams by school for each decade?  More of the great players would be included and customers could buy the era they remember most fondly.
.
70s OSU
80s OSU, etc.
.
I must seem scatterbrained on this, but I'm just trying to come up with what people will most want.

How's this suit Buckeyes fans?


Notes:
No, the average score isn't correct, I fixed it to 34 PF, 13 PA
Yes, for the decade of the 70s, the Bucks only allowed 13 points per game on defense.
I included Kern for 2 reasons:  I don't plan on making a 60s team AND of the other choices at QB, one was a backup and the other never, ever threw the ball.  One season of Kern was enough to get him on this team.
.
Basically, I think a team like this will be more meaningful to a game-player than an overall all-time team - of which they'll all be superteams.  These decade all-star teams will all be strong, but will have their relative strengths and weaknesses, too.

And yes, I'm going to take the time to get the defensive stats.

Haskins one year was the best any OSU QB has ever had. I think I'd go with him. 

4,900 yards and 50 TD's vs 8 INT's - 70% completion- in one year- doesn't get better than that.

Ya and Urbz felt the need to keep him and Jeaux Bureaux penned to let JTB strecth his legs.Good kid and all that but Urbz wasn't watching the 31-0 white washing in'16.Because he turned around and handed him the ball in the following spring camp with those two stallions chomping on the bit

Still hating on the kid who OWNS the OSU passing record-books, I see.  That's fun stuff.

That'd be Haskins and I wasn't hating rather pointing out a fact.He was handed the ball for parts of 5 yrs with the talent around him he should have made a dent.And he got cut like 7 times after leaving C-Bus so reality exists.You may notice Saban wins w/o batting an eye to switching QBs - Big Boy Game

Oops my bad

It was the 31st NFL transaction Barrett has been part of— 14 times he has been released or waived during a span of 19 months. But the three-time Big Ten Quarterback of the Year keeps perspective.

That's a shiny cherry you picked.  The most horse-shit measuring stick in all of sport:  gauging QBs' ability with championships won.  
I guess Jay Barker is better than Joe Namath.  
Peyton Manning sucked.....I mean, he was no Tee Martin.
Roger Stabauch must have stunk in college - no championship.
.
Hell, let's include other positions - Jim Brown simply didn't do enough to get Syracuse a NC.  Earl Campbell must be overrated - Steve Worster was the superior RB, because of their natty in '69.
.
Ugh.

Me:  tries having a college football conversation
The earth:  what about this NFL tidbit?!?
.
Barrett was OSU's most productive QB of all-time.  Hell, his career was closer to Tim Tebow's than anyone would imagine.  Why?  Because OSU fans' favorite hobby is crouching down and taking a big, fat dump on him whenever possible.

AND I DON'T GIVE 2 FUX ABOUT NFL STUFF!

Anyway, back on topic - I decided to do all-star teams by decade.  
So far, I've made:
1970s OSU
1990s Florida
2000s Texas
1980s Miami
.
The next obvious ones are 2010s Alabama, 1990s Nebraska, 1990s FSU, 1970s OU, and on and on.
I'm using their stats from the whole decade, so their defensive ratings aren't all maxed-out, which is a good thing.
