FCS Biggest Offensive and Defensive lineman?

[KAUMASS]

I got the idea from Duck Duck Griz "oh Lord" thread.

Levi Horne is a big fella from Montana @ 6'7", 305.

Who is your biggest starting offensive and defensive lineman-if there injured but started at some point this season, there in. Hopefully we can find the biggest in FCS. I'll put together a starting lineup.

I believe one guard I saw for Hofstra play against UConn was 6'3, 355..

I'll start....

UMass-Ben Coblyn 6'8" 305 OT, Kyle Harrington, 6' 4", 285, nose tackle.
Coblyn has been listed anywhere from 6'7" to 6'9". He was a former BB player who transferred from Boston U to get back into football..

[appfan2008]

ASU is not very big we win with speed... no one on offense or defense 2 deep is over 300 lbs!!!

[Khan4Cats]

UNI has:

Everette Pedescleaux Sr DT 6'6" 305 played two years on the UNI basketball team, only DL over 300

OL has:
Austin Howard Jr OT 6'7" 301 converted from TE the last two years (played at around 275-80), also played on the UNI basketball team, starting left tackle
Jay Teply RS Fr OT 6'7" 325 starting right tackle
Bob Swift Sr OG 6'6" 315 starting left guard
(starting right guard is only 6'2" 302, center is 6'3" 300)

also have three other RS Freshman who are working into the system
Andrew BlackLance 6'6" 302, Mitch Houk 6'7" 275, and Evan Tecklenburg 6'8" 330 (a FR!)

also have several Fr OL members that are redshirting this year that top 6'4"/6'5" but have yet to put on the weight

TE's are run 6'4" 255, 6'5" 252, 6'4" 235, and 6'7" 244. The 6'7 guy doesn't count as much since he runs more like a WR.

[BeauFoster]

Good Lord! The food bill for some of these boys must be out of the stratosphere!

[andy7171]

It is absolutely amazing how big some of these players are. When I was at Towson in the early 90's we had one guy over 300 and he was a slow a$$ NG. Our o-line was an average 6'3" 265 across the board. Biggest 6'6" 285. There was only 2-4 guys in the NFL over 300 per team.

Same goes for Dayton.... Interesting. I sure would like to see a Dayton / App game.

You know, everyone is always interested in those big fella's. How about the smallest starting offensive lineman in FCS...

http://daytonflyers.cstv.com/sports/m-footbl/mtt/whitten_zach00.html

Zach goes 6' 3", and a whopping 225 lbs!

It seems like Dayton has a guy like this every season. Last year our starting center went all of 234 lbs.

At any rate, does anyone have a "smaller" starting offensive lineman than Zach?

[appfan2008]

Same goes for Dayton.... Interesting. I sure would like to see a Dayton / App game.

ME TOO!!! xnodx that would be fun :)

[Green26]

Some more Montana o-lineman. Dyk and Hillesland are starters. Both played high school basketball.

57 Burton, Charles FR OL 6'5" 315 Long Beach, CA

75 Dyk, Chris JR OT 6'8" 295 Dillon, MT

77 Hillesland, Terran JR OG 6'7" 323 Sidney, MT

[mcveyrl]

Our D-line:

70 Earl Watford DT 6-5 275 Fr. Philadelphia, Pa. (Simon Gratz)
77 Dominique White DT 5-8 285 RJr. Hampton, Va. (Hampton)

Kind of a variety between tall and lean and short and built. Not sure how you define big in that case...but note the brick house at the bottom!! xeekx

[mcveyrl]

Not going to show the whole o-line (too many), but these are the guys at 3 bills:

78 Arthur Walker OG 6-3 325 RSo. Newport News, Va. (Heritage)
60 Terrence Apted OT 6-4 335 RSr. Pago Pago, American Samoa (Fagatuio)

[UAalum72]

Albany's Nguti is down from 360 as a freshman

[appstate1998]

Armanti Edwards 142lbs

[Mountain Panther]

Good Lord! The food bill for some of these boys must be out of the stratosphere!

Yeah....when they cut themselves in practice they bleed gravy.

[Cobblestone]

Too lazy to look up the roster but when we played Villanova I was impressed by the size of their O-Line. I think they were the biggest we faced all season.

[401ks]

Butler has a few big boys:

Mike Fiedler 6-8/300 OL RS FR Toledo, Ohio/Whitmer

[appfan2008]

Armanti Edwards 142lbs

soaking wet and with pads on...



actually that is what i weigh... 5'10" 142

[appfan2008]

I remember when we played samford they supposedly had some huge dudes our radio guy said they were as big if not bigger than the o line we faced at LSU... I will have to look that up...

[poly51]

The heaviest guy on the Cal Poly roster is All American OL Steven Field at 6'1" 290.

[appfan2008]

here is samford's 2 deep o line
starters
6'6" 308
6'7" 312
6'4" 306
6'6" 330
6'4" 318

backups
6'4" 272
6'3" 308
6'0" 312
6'4" 314
6'7" 325

now those are some big boys!

[SeattleGriz]

Armanti Edwards 142lbs

He's a BEAST!!!!


:D

[Retro]

Mcneese's biggest is a True Freshman

79 Savoie, Alec OT 6-7 322 Fr. Lafayette, LA (Comeaux HS)

[Panther88]

Our largest is as follows:


OL J Blanton OL 6-7 335 So. Clute, Texas Brazoswood

DL J Lavan DL 6-1 320 So. Houston, Texas Alief


We have taller DEs @ 6'4"-5" but they're ~230-260 lbs.

Kids are really big these days.

[drpnut]

Wofford has a Soph. who is an NFL Prospect

OL -- Pat Illig 6'6'' 340

[clenz]

Corn. Corn. Corn-fed beef. Corn-fed hogs. Corn.
Thanks for furthering the stereotype of Iowa...ha...

UNI has some big boys up front. The strange thing is, like said earlier, 2 of them played D1 basketball.

With the way injuries are going this year for the UNI basketball team we could use them back on the court.

[wideright82]

Some Villanova OL, DL is significantly smaller with the exception of this guy (Villanova doesn't like updating weight):
94 Matusz, Phil DL JR 6-3/280 (he is at least 305 now)


75 Bauta, Izzy OL SR 6-4/300
60 Brannigan, Brian OL JR 6-3/285 (i know for a fact he has cracked 300)
70 Bugli, Jonathan OL JR 6-5/285 (same for him)
67 Clouser, Brant OL SO 6-3/290 (likewise)
71 Ijalana, Benjamin OL SO 6-4/325
65 Oakley, Gene OL SO 6-3/285 (305 at least)
77 Poston, Travis OL FR 6-6/310
61 Sheridan, Michael OL SR 6-2/310

[UD77]

UD doesn't have an O-line this year, don't have a QB either.

[UNCBears2010]

Northern Colorado has OL Jacob Thornbrue Sr 6'6 335

[Eaglesrus]

We had a redshirt freshman that was supposed to start for us on the O-line this year who is listed at 6'5" 341, but he came up one credit hour short of being eligible. As it is our biggest OL is Dio Herrara at 6'3" 325 and our biggest DL is Casey Wingard at 6'0" 330.

[Go...gate]

Corn. Corn. Corn-fed beef. Corn-fed hogs. Corn.


Cornflakes. Dozens of eggs. Gallons of milk.

Probably a fair amount of pizza and beer, as well.

Hey, I could have said soy beans, but that's too healthy.xrolleyesx

Seriously, have you seen the diet regimen some of these guys are put on? It's enough to make Michael Phelps say "Thanks, but I'm full."xrotatehx

And it might be nice to see Big Everette get a chance to get back on the court, but I have a feeling that with the way his season has been going he'll be busy in the spring with combines. And no, not the agricultural kind.xthumbsupx

[slostang]

Cal Poly is one of the smallest FCS teams.

Sr OL Stephen Field weighs the most at 6'1" 290

Rfr OL Scott Winnewisser is the tallest lineman at 6'5" 235

Rfr DE Kevin Hess is the tallest DL at 6'4" 260

Rfr DE Kevin Hess (6'4" 260), So NG James Chen (6'2" 260) and Sr DE James Lawyer (6'1" 260) are tied for the Defensive Lineman that weighs the most on the team.

[Appstate29]

I don't know about O-line, possibly Acitelli? hes around the 285 range. Most of the O-line fits in that category 270-290. Kerry Brown was our only o lineman over 300 that started last year. Dline is also small and quick, we do have a Rfr. Gordy Witte 6-6 and 295. He was the state champ heavyweight wrestling his senior year of HS.

[JackTwice]

SDSU has:
OL
Casey Knips 6'8 300
Nate Koskovich 6'4 320

DL
Steven Bazata 6'5 285
Eric Schroeder 6'4 280

[Mr. Tiger]

OL Terrael Williams 6-8 350 pounds

[Grizalltheway]

I got the idea from Duck Duck Griz "oh Lord" thread.

Levi Horne is a big fella from Montana @ 6'7", 305.

Who is your biggest starting offensive and defensive lineman-if there injured but started at some point this season, there in. Hopefully we can find the biggest in FCS. I'll put together a starting lineup.

I believe one guard I saw for Hofstra play against UConn was 6'3, 355..

I'll start....

UMass-Ben Coblyn 6'8" 305 OT, Kyle Harrington, 6' 4", 285, nose tackle.
Coblyn has been listed anywhere from 6'7" to 6'9". He was a former BB player who transferred from Boston U to get back into football..

He lived on my floor freshmen year. Let's just say I made sure to never get on his bad side. xlolx

66 Russum, Brent SR OT 6'4" 295 Lewiston, ID (starter)

Powell County HS

[Demonguy]

NSU's LT Jace Prescott... 6-5, 360 lbs.

He is getting some play as a potential NFL prospect as just a redshirt freshman. I watched him in HS and he played at well over 400 lbs with some of the best feet you have ever seen, on a 200 lb guy. Just amazing athleticism.

[SuperJon]

Asa Chapman - 6'5 380-395.


And he can dunk a basketball.
