Man, some all-time names on that list.
Other memorable names (at least to me) from that era: Guy Teafeatalier, African Grant, Rob Gleimi... Those were the days!  Previous Message returned something in the neighborhood of 15 starters, including 7 all big ten guys from 1984: David Williams, Cap Boso, Jim Juriga, Thomas Rooks, Chris White, Craig Swoope, and Trudeau. Lots of senior talent in 85 that was part of the 83 Rose Bowl team and couldn’t get back to that level
