Top 10 Cardinal of the Pac-10 era - yvonne - 06-28-2011
Seattle Times columnist Bob Condotta is doing a series of the top 10 offensive and defensive UW players of the Pac-10 era (1978-2010).
Who are your offensive picks for the top 10 Cardinal in that era? Who are your defensive picks? Maybe someone will want to keep a spreadsheet and post the tally.

Yvonne - without reservation I say that Shayne Skov will have his finest moments at Stanford in the Pac 12 vs. the Pac 10.
Re: Top 10 Cardinal of the Pac-10 era - yvonne - 06-28-2011
This may be true, but he still participated in the Pac-10 era, and was one of the top 10 defensive players in that era. Would you dispute that Andrew Luck was also one of the top 10 players in the Pac-10 era?
Re: Top 10 Cardinal of the Pac-10 era - Spiny_Norman - 06-28-2011
Andrew Luck has the highest winning percentage (.800) among Stanford quarterbacks in school history, was 1st team All Pac 10 and runner up in the Voldemort voting.
Shayne Skov was honorable mention all Pac 10 in his one full season as a starter. He is very talented and can be the defensive leader of a great Stanford defense (as he was in the Orange Bowl). But I still don't think he would rank above LBs Gordy Ceresino (his 1978 > Skov's 2010), Dave Wyman, Ron George, Coy Wire or Riall Johnson based on his accomplishments so far.
