OL: Le’Raven Clark, Brandon Carter, LaAdrian Waddle, Terence Steele, Don King
There would be plenty of beef and tons of offensive line talent on this roster. Between Le’Raven Clark, Brandon Carter, LaAdrian Waddle, Terence Steele, and Don King you will find 197 career starts and four All-American honors.
Clark, a product of Rockdale, started all 51 career games he played at Tech from 2012-15. As a senior, he was named a second-team All-American and in both his junior and senior seasons he earned first-team All-Big 12 honors while garnering second-team honors as a sophomore. The 6-foot-6, 308-pounder was a third-round pick of the Indianapolis Colts in 2016.
Brandon Carter was not only one of the most memorable offensive linemen in program history, but he was also one of the most dominant. Known for his mohawk haircut and professional wrestling inspired face paint, the Longview native was a consensus first-team All-American in 2008 and a second-team All-American in 2009. He started 39 career games for the Texas Tech football program.
Columbus, Texas native La’Adrian Waddle was a first-team All-Big 12 honoree in 2012 and a second-team selection in 2011. He started 40 games as a Red Raider including 38-straight to end his career. Waddle has been part of two Super Bowl championship teams despite being undrafted in 2013.
A current member of the program, Terence Steele is also part of the rest of Texas roster. A Cibolo product, he has started all 37 games of his Red Raider career. The 2018 All-Big 12 honorable mention honoree has moved to left tackle for his senior season after spending the last two years at right tackle.
From 1966-68, Red Raider guard Don King was a fixture along the Texas Tech offensive line. The Wichita Falls native was a second-team All-American and first-team All-Southwest Conference selection in 1968.
This offensive line could have an argument as the best of the all-time teams we have examined in that past few days. Each of the players on this list proved to be either an all-time great in program history or at worst, a player with a lengthy NFL career.
