Not sure if this has been posted yet but Paul Allen's show featured the top 10 all-time football greats for the Gophers. I about died when he was asked if he knew who Paul Giel was. NO, Allen said. WOW!!! The most amazing thing of all is they had Adam Weber No. 8 on the all-time list. No Rickie Foggie, no Rick Upchurch, no Karl Mecklenburg, no Tom Brown, no Sandy Stephens, no Billy Light (our all-time leading tackler), no Lawrence Maroney, no Eric Decker, no Jon Leverenz, no Matt Spaeth, no Charlie Sanders, no Maxx Williams, no Gale Gillingham, no Aaron Brown, no Leo Nomellini, no Bud Wilkinson (who helped lead the Golden Gophers to three consecutive national championships from 1934 to 1936) no Bud Grant. But by God we got Adam Bounce Pass Weber in there at no. 8
