51 Tucker Schye: A gifted rush end with a relentless motor who carried on the “37” with honor.
Honorable Mention: Ryan Jollymore was another under the radar linebacker who just played well.
52 John Kanongata’a: A three year starter and All Big Sky performer. Did the Griz ever had a better linebacking corps than Kanongata’a, Tripp and Coyle? That’s another list.
Honorable Mention: Nick Vella, a fine linebacker in a seemingly unending stream of them.
53 Kroy Biermann: Has there ever been a more destructive defensive end in the FCS?
Honorable Mention: Josh Stuberg just quietly went about his work at linebacker and did his work very well.
54 Randy Allik: Started his career at defensive tackle before moving to guard and becoming an All Big Sky second team performer.
Honorable Mention: “54” was a coin flip, Austin Mullins, road the bench for three years before having a very solid senior campaign at defensive tackle, earning himself an All Big Sky second team distinction. Also a mention to Trevor Rehm who was often “the other guy” on some very talented offensive lines.
55 Dan Downs: All American linebacker from the early 90’s gets the pick.
Honorable Mention: Second team All Big Sky performers Johnny Varona at defensive tackle and Eric Buehler at defensive end.
56 Brock Coyle: Never got the national recognition he deserved in college but Grizzly fans and the NFL knew just how good this linebacker was.
Honorable Mention: Eric Simonson was an All Conference guard and a member of the ’95 National Championship team. Markus Wilson was a superb athlete at linebacker.
57 Charles Burton: A big physical tackle on some very good Montana lines.
Honorable Mention: Shane Cochran was a hard working linebacker who started on the special teams and ended up in the starting line up. “57” is another number that hasn’t been worn by a lot of players.
58 Zach Waggenmann: The ultimate speed rusher and a two time All American.
Honorable Mention: All American offensive lineman Rick Erps who was one of the strongest Grizzlies ever.
59 Kelly Kain: A run stuffing defensive tackle who anchored some tough defensive lines.
Honorable Mention: Tyrone Duncan was a platooned defensive tackle who transferred in from Washington. Many Griz fans have their fingers crossed that Milton Mamula can be a great one in the “59” jersey.
60 Mike Agee: A two time All American guard.
Honorable Mention: Jay Fagan a one time All American guard.
Honorable Mention: Ryan Jollymore was another under the radar linebacker who just played well.
