This is a GREAT poll. I wish I had a three sided coin.

Dyslexia in spelling Diem

At NIU or including as a pro?

At this point, got to extrapolate Scharping's future. He might be the best of them all.

Free, Diem, Clark. - all GREAT athletes.

NIU has really put some great OL out there in the NFL. Keep it going!

In 10 years we might have to revisit this poll.

Diem by a landslide, but Scharping has the upside to be better.

That was a tough choice. I went with Free, because it seems that every great run by Garrett Wolfe included a key block from Free.

Peat

Peat=Beast! Players back in the day used to tell stories about Peat, have to think he would be in the mix. Great call.

Peat was fridge Perry. At 6'1" and 300 lbs, he could dunk a basketball in games. He was very quick and agile.

I heard a story my freshman year about Peat, while running stadium stairs he told our strength coach if he had to do one more set he was jumping off the back of the stadium. Well, he had one more to do, and he jumped over the edge but held on from the back, coach was at the bottom freaking out not seeing Peat hanging off the back. 300 lb guy dangling from the top of Huskie Stadium, I would say he had nuts the size of cantaloupe.

Great story. I heard when Mallory recruited him, he had to make weight in August when he reported. In HS, I think he was 350 and had to come in at 300. Impressive athlete

I wish his son would have come to NIU......

Hard to argue against Diem who started in the Super Bowl.

I tried to vote (again) for Peat. Having watched all of them closely, Todd was the most devasting blocker, but Diem - awesome career.
