Just rewatched the VY NC game.  David Thomas was nails.  Just caught everything.  Leading receiver on that team.  
 

Really liked Ogbanaya.  He’s a great choice for the non-star favorites list.  I remember him as a guy that just made plays when needed.  Selvin Young fit that mold too.

Shane Dronett was my cousin.  Always looked up to him. Sad he was a victim of CTE before they knew what it was.

Lance Gunn - if he wasn’t with the team or in class, he was always hitting the books in PCL…and he was an All American.

Ahmard Hall.  The Big Marine played FB for VY and in the NFL for several years.  But he was never a star on the best team UT has ever fielded.  Y'all know the story of his closed door meeting with the team after the 12-0 loss to OU in 2004 and how they never lost again.

Major Applewhite.  I was not a fan of benching him in favor of Simms.  Simms had the NFL skill set.  Major was a leader.

My teammate Duane Miller who was a three-year letterman at guard. (1987-1990) I had to go head-to-head with him on a daily basis and usually had to take a handful of Motrin afterwards.  His then girlfriend (now wife) made some killer chicken spaghetti.  Super nice guy.  Became Todd Dodge's OL coach when he was a Rockwall and left coaching to become an attorney.

Going back to old school guys:

Bruce Scholtz, Mark Lang, The "smurfs" (Billy Boy Bryant, Russell Hays, and Brent Duhon), Mike Reuther, John Hains, Eric Holle, Johnny Walker

Quan Cosby count or is he in "star status"?

 

Same for BJ Johnson. Both had a number one in Jordan Shipley and Roy Williams but they were also studs. 

 

Others:

Aaron Lewis

Roschon for being selfless

Michael and Marcus Griffin

 

Those are a few that come to mind.
