ONLY 3-time all-american LB at OU.

Definitely a contender. He's the best I've ever seen.

“O Line Trent Williams
D Line L. Selmon

I would say Boz was great college but injured early in NFL

I would add safety Roy Williams. They created the “horse collar penalty” for Roy he made that play routinely in CFB and NFL before outlawed.

I would add Adrian Peterson …obvious

Does Joe Sewell not count because he played before the SEC was a thing?

Craziest thing about Yale Lary was that he took two years off to fight in the
Korean war.

He was legendary for his punting but also had 50 interceptions in his NFL career and was drafted into pro baseball.

The guy was an all around talent.
