PrintAt outside linebacker you guys ended up picking Jeremiah Pharms, Donald Jones, Mark Stewart, Martin Harrison, Richie Chambers, and Antowaine Richardson.
I voted for Antowaine Richardson, Mark Stewart, Martin Harrison and Tony Caldwell.
I think Jeremiah Pharms one because of stories about how he used to piss his pants to intimidate opposing players. A very unusual technique but enough to get a player in my top six.
Who are the Best Interior Linebackers in Washington History?
Plenty to choose from including Tim Meamber, Michael Jackson, Rick Redman, Chuck Allen, George Juggam, Lester Towns, Bruce Harrell and Chico Fraley, Jaime Fields.
How can you just pick four?
Pick your favorite four. Polls close in 24 hours!

Speaking of smoking crack...
…anyone that doesn’t have Rick Redman on their list needs to have their head examined. C’mon guys, Redman is one of the all-time Husky greats, a guy that is in the College Football Hall of Fame and was a consensus All-American in both ’63 and ’64.
For those that don’t know, you can access the Husky Media Guide online at the official UW athletics website: http://gohuskies.cstv.com/sports/m-footbl/spec-rel/wash-mediaguide.html
It’s worth spending a little time going through that to refresh yourselves on Husky greats that played before your time.
You would figure
You would figure if you are picking four that Redman would get at least one of those votes.

Juggam
George Juggam played for the Huskies back in the late 60’s and I think he was one of the hardest hitters I have ever seen.
this is a really hard one
Hard to pick only four, but I went with:
Rick Redman
Michael Jackson
Tim Meamber
Dave Hoffman
If Lester Towns hadn’t broken his foot, I think he’d have ended being a guy that’s a no-brainer selection – he had all the tools.
Hard to leave off guys like Bruce Harrell, David Rill, Lester Towns, Ink Aleaga, Chuck Allen, Chico Fraley, Jaime Fields, etc. Our LB’s were a consistent strength in the DJ years…
Who's smoking crack?
Your point on Harrell is well-taken, but John, you have Derrell Daniels up for votes in lieu of guys like Fred Small or James Clifford? Small, may he forever rest in peace, was all Pac-10 in 1984 despite being way undersized at 6-foot and around 230 lbs. And while Hoffman got the load of the press at linebacker in the early 90’s, it was Clifford who did the dirty work. Clifford also overcame a devastating knee injury that probably cost him an NFL career.

Can't argue
with your picks kirkd…tough to pick just 4. Think we could sign acouple of these guys tomorrow?!? ;^ )
George Jugum of West Seattle
but I didn’t vote for him because of his manslaughter conviction. If anyone ever needed anger management it was him, but while he was great, I couldn’r bring myself to vote for him with all the other great ones out there.
