All-Tressel Era Team- Offense

I have compiled a list of what I believe to be the best players for Ohio State this past decade under one of my favorite coaches of all time, Jim Tressel (I state that PROUDLY, for all of you negative nancies out there). I will start with the offense, along with a brief list of the starters accomplishments while they attended The Ohio State University.

QB- Troy Smith (Terrelle Pryor, Craig Krenzel)
RB- Maurice Clarett (Beanie Wells, Antonio Pittman)
FB- Jamar Martin (Brandon Joe, Zach Boren)
WR- Michael Jenkins (Ted Ginn, Anthony Gonzalez)
WR- Santonio Holmes (Brian Robiskie, Dane Sanzenbacher)
TE- Ben Hartsock (Darnell Sanders, Jake Ballard)
T- Rob Sims (Tyson Walter, Alex Boone)
G- Alex Stepanovich (Adrien Clarke, Doug Datish)
C- LeCharles Bentley (Nick Mangold, Mike Brewster)
G- Justin Boren (T.J. Downing, Bryce Bishop)
T- Shane Olivea (Kirk Barton, Jim Cordle)

Troy Smith: 2006 All-American, Walter Camp, Davey O'Brien and Heisman Trophy Winner

Maurice Clarett: 2002 Freshman of the Year and national champion

Jamar Martin: 2001 Team Captain

Michael Jenkins: All-Big Ten receiver and national champion
