Michigan football fans know how valuable center David Molk has been to the offensive line's growth over the past two years. Now everyone else is catching on.

Molk earned first-team, all-Big Ten honors last year from the conference's coaches, and ranks among Adam Rittenberg's top conference players at ESPN.com.


Rittenberg notes there's other linemen in the conference who generated more buzz, but says the coaches vote is a significant sign of respect for the Illinois native, who returns as one of the leading candidates for the Rimington Trophy, given annually to the nation's top center.

Find out where Molk ranks here.

What a baby face he has!! Hopefully he stays healthy and sets the pace, like many of his predecessors. When does spring practice start?

Molk is a good player. Those Adidas unis are hideous. I wish they would can those in the trash...along with everything else that Bill Martin brought in to the football program and go back to Nike.
