61 Chad Germer: An All American offensive lineman with a long NFL career on his resume.

Honorable Mention: Scott Curry, All Conference tackle from the ’95 team who also took his talents to the NFL.

62 David Kempfert: All American center who “quarterbacked” the line that gave Dickenson the time to work his magic.

Honorable Mention: Derek Decker who along with Szalay, McFarland, Pelc, and Skinner might have been the best line the Griz have ever had, and that’s saying a bit.

63 Kirk Scrafford: 43 consecutive starts for Montana and a nine year NFL career for this All American offensive lineman who many thought might be too small for the trenches.

Honorable Mention: Ryan Wells a sturdy and steady center for the Griz.

64 Bill Venard: All Big Sky and All American center in the late 80’s.

Honorable Mention: When we heard Dylan Cook was being moved from QB to OT most people thought they’d heard wrong. Turns out he’s pretty adept on the line and will only get better.

65 Matt Thuesen: A hard working center for the Griz in the late 90’s.

Honorable Mention: Thad Huse was a starting defensive tackle who played from 1988 to 1991. Demedric Cooks was a very talented linebacker but only played two seasons for the Griz.

66 Brent Russum: An All-American offensive tackle who played in a couple of National Championship games.

Honorable Mention: Two All Big Sky second teamers; Jay Green and Cy Sirmon get named here. Special mention for Sirmon who converted from the defensive side of the ball to fill a need for the Griz.

67 Frank Garrett: Yet another All Big Sky Conference offensive lineman.
Honorable Mention: All Big Sky second team lineman Kamakana Kaimuloa

68 Russell Piette a hardworking, 2nd Team All Big Sky offensive lineman.

Honorable Mention: Steve Sabin moved from guard to center on some very good Grizzly lines.

69 JD Quinn: The tough guy center was an Honorable Mention All American after transferring to the Griz from Oklahoma

Honorable Mention: Kjelby Oiland, a big, strong center who anchored very good offensive lines for Jordan Johnson and Jordan Canada.

70 Marty Duffin: A defensive tackle on the 95 Championship team.

Honorable Mention: A pair of centers Joe Martin and Ben Weyer.

The best OL the Griz have ever had is the '94 group and it isn't even close.

Simonson, Agee, Kempfert, Zellick, and Gragg; yeah I could see that.

To paraphrase a Read comment, he said that had Ochs had the OL that DD had it would be his number retired. While having been a great LB, Beers was a hell of an OL coach.
