Position U

ESPN ranked all schools based on the best talent from each position group during the BCS/CFP era (1998-2018). Horns were well represented (although I think TE should have been included - Thomas, Scaiffe, Finley). Horns ranked as follows:

QB #4
RB #7
OL #9
DB #6
DL #7

Our friends from Dysfunction Junction (aka college station) only appeared once (QB #9).

Position U: Which schools produce the most talent at each position
And that includes Mond. I'm not sure why he's on the list but not Sam.

I think I saw elsewhere, but don't remember the publication, but Texas was ranked #1 for DBU. Texas should be higher for RB too. Foreman won the Doak Walker.
 
I’d say we’re already back to being DBU, and well on the way to being OLU.

Remember how in the 90s and early 2000s Wisconsin’s OL would just take over the game and pound the opponent into submission? As our young OL grows, I can see us being the new Wisconsin when it comes to OL. The gold standard in the trenches.

Pairing a top notch OL with a star dual threat QB makes an offense that’s nearly impossible to stop.
