That is incredible. Congratulations Greg! It was highlighted last evening at the MBB game. He just seems like a really respectful young man.
Awesome.

RE: what announcement?
I am just a little naive on the process. Can someone explain how an offensive lineman achieves this recognition? What are the influences? Do opposing coaches make this call, or is someone out there reviewing film on every lineman?

He is pretty decorated. When a linemen wins the player of the year award in a conference, as a selection committee that is probably hard to ignore. Word of mouth gets around about those types of players.

Just like word of mouth about jordan haydens athletic ability and family name. Im not sure if he deserved second team safety (For MAC ofcourse)... Especially going on our pass defense. But hey I am no expert.

Mancz named 2nd team all American.

There are many groups, media, etc.... that name All American Teams, but there are the 5 major lists. He was named by the Football Writers which is one of the five majors. A couple of the other major teams is the AP and the UPI.

...and we lose him or the NIU game and have to play 3rd and 4th team Qb's - and only lose by 3. We easily could have been MAC champs - and a rematch with Marshall that is not on their home field.
