I think you have to include NFL performance in such a ranking.

Who are your school's top 5 all-time middle LBs?  And who are the top 5 "edge" pass-rusher LBs/DEs?

For Florida:
MLB
Brandon Spikes, Scot Brantley, David Little, Godfrey Myles/Tim Paulk (played together, people tend to prefer one over the other, both were awesome), Brandon Siler

EDGE
Alex Brown, Wilbur Marshall, Jarvis Moss, Huey Richardson, Kevin Carter

I know OSU had a ton of great MLBs back in the day and more elite edge guys recently.

One thing most people don't know is that James Laurinaitis of OSU was one of the rare 3x consensus All-Americans in history.

MLB
Barrett Ruud
Tom "Train Wreck" Novak
Jay Foreman
Carlos Polk

Blackshirts didn't use a lot of MLB's unless you cornside inside LBs as in the 5-2 defense

Edge
Jim SKow
Grant Wistrom
Trev Alberts
Broderick Thomas
Demorrio Williams

Ability, yes.  Production, no.  

In Florida's in-house stats and in their media guide in Spurrier's early years, they counted "big plays" and he did well there.

Grant - 206 total tackles - 58 for loss of 260 yds - 26 sacks 178 yds
58.5 tackles for loss is a Husker record career record for all positions
Grant had 15 total tackles in a game vs Colorado - Husker record for DE
Grant had 20 tackles for loss in a season

Jared - had 10 sacks in a season - better than Grant

Jason was the younger crazy brother and probably the better player
All-American (AP, FWAA, Walter Camp, Sporting News, 1997)
Outland Trophy Finalist (1997)
Bronko Nagurski Defensive Player-of-the-Year Finalist (1997)
Two-Time First-Team All-Big 12 (1996, 1997)
