How many from Pedo State? When I was younger they were called LBU.

Happy for the Mad Stork. Probably top 5 most “never talked about” Cane football legend.

Didn't see the complete list. Yea, I remember that as well. I'm gonna go back and watch the episodes. Belichek is great on the shows.

No doubt. Got to see the Mad Stork a couple of times and he seemed like he was from another planet.

I remember that too but the only LB I could actually cite is LaVar Arrington.

Question.
The "Mad Stork" nickname.
Was that a reference to his frame and the Ibis bird?

Greg Buttle was a good pro. Ham is a HOFer.
You know the deal though. Other schools produce 1 or 2 pro's at a position and they start crowning themselves

Exactly who I was going to add into my post. Lol

Derrick Brooks

Derrick Brooks

Brooks a HOF'er but LT is not only the GOAT but considered by many the GOAT defensive player regardless of position.

Had to do some research on that one. His wiki page only cites that he got the Mad Stork nickname while at Miami and later in the NFL shortened to just the Stork. Wiki does reference his tall, lanky frame when mentioning his nickname.

Shane Conlan was pretty good.

Derrick Brooks

Brooks is one of the few players, especially a Nole, I’d wish were Canes. As good as the 94 defense was can you imagine Ray Lewis, Rohan Marley, and Derrick Brooks as the LB trio? With Sapp, Lang, Holmes, and Riley on the DL?

 

[Memnon]

Ray Lewis is the greatest Middle LB in the history of the NFL.

 

[JD08]

Ray Lewis is the greatest Middle LB in the history of the NFL.

It would require a very strong case to disagree with that statement. He definitely set a standard.

 

[TheMatador]

I don't think Arrington made it. Only PSU was Jack Ham.

This is the list:

Bednarik -- Penn, not PSU
Joe Schmidt -- Pitt
Jack Ham- -- PSU
Jack Lambert -- Kent State
Ted Hendricks -- UM
Ray Lewis -- UM
Lawrence Taylor -- UNC
Bobby Bell -- Minnesota
Willie Lanier -- Morgan State
Junior Seau -- USC
Derrick Brooks -- FSU
**** Butkus -- Illinois

UM is only school with two. We are LBU.

Derrick Thomas did not make it.

 

[supersaiyanshel]

They robbed Sapp on the DL rankings tho.

 

[TheMatador]

Eric Ciamarella is not on the list.

Greg Buttle was a **** good LB...very underrated...Pedo State has good LBs....but not much lately
