Reiff 1st Big Ten player selected in draft...

[Bohawk]

and I was about to post "possibly only Big 10 player selected in first round", but Illinois guy just got drafted.

There seem to be quite a few Big 10ers showing up on the "next best" lists so hopefully the conference can show a little better in the next half hour (6 picks to go as I post).

Big 12 has 5 so far. SEC has 8 and 4 four from Alabama alone!

3 Big Ten guys now with the OG from Wisconsin.

oversigning at its best right there

 

[Bohawk]

And another from Illinois brings it up to 4 (AJ Jenkins WR)

Baylor had two before B1G had one.

 

[aaronzuriel]

oversigning at its best right there

plus 1

Let alone about the $100 handshakes.

Do shake my head when "fans" ***** that Ferentz and CO can't recruit the 4 and 5 stars. Looks like Meechigan and a OH ST, Penn St didn't do so well 3, 4 and 5 years ago either.

Any comments of interest from any of the tv analysts about Reiff/Iowa that anyone heard?

Made mention of how well coached he is of course. Talked about some of the other Iowa OL's in the league. Said his arms were a little short, but a solid pick. Not sure what else was said.

Thank you

Not enough speed in the B1G

Absolute proof that KF underachieves despite NFL talent on his team. Unacceptable!

Lol. Gotta love the arms are short comments.

I was just going to say the same thing! Every year you hear about that. I don't think I've ever heard during a game...."damn, if his arms had been longer, he might have got that tackle"

You do know he is on the Oline right? He wouldn't be doing too much tackling there.

That's crazy about Alabama, that team was just loaded.

The last time a Big Ten player was the first Big Ten player selected this low was 1968.
