Ryan Hayes was an unsung stalwart at left tackle for the Wolverines

The Michigan Wolverines have a long, storied tradition where one position is directly synonymous with the university. This extends across any major college football program for that matter, like a fun word association game: Ohio State, wide receivers; Oklahoma, quarterbacks; LSU, defensive backs.

But when ball-knowers think Michigan, they think offensive linemen. The big nasties up front for the Wolverines have been a focal point for every great team that has ever taken the field at the Big House.

Playing offensive line at Michigan is a tradition of success that has produced All-Americans, NFL Hall of Famers and even presidents of the United States.
