I would also put Kreutz above him.

In 1996, Kreutz was involved in an altercation with defensive tackle Sekou Wiggs in spring practice. It continued in the lockerroom where Kreutz punched Wiggs, leaving Wiggs with a broken jaw.[3] Wiggs lost 65 pounds as a result of having his jaw wired shut and never resumed his role as a starter.[4]

O line today is 7 on 7 with no pads.

Back in the day you had to road grade to be an O lineman

Troy is great for today though Best of luck to him

Fautanu is up there, for sure, but UW has had a lot of good ones.

Couldn't agree with this more. I see a lot of hyperbole about certain linemen at both levels where I'm like huh they're kind of just moving forward where they schematically have an advantage but I thought Troy was a rare one I saw regularly mauling guys at the LOS. When I was a young boy I went to Skagit Speedway with Pinney and his kids and ate a giant bag of candy, pizza, soda, and ice cream and threw up so much in my dad's new truck it never smelled the same, so I'm biased.

I think throw Lincoln Kenndy in there?

Troy brings something those previous guys didn't have, speed.
