Official Fort Top 25 from 1997-2016

[LaneGoBlue13]

The Wolverine staff ( @ChrisBalas @Brandon Brown @Austin Fox @JohnBorton @Leland Mitchinson ) recently polled itself and generated a list of the Top 25 Michigan players from 1997-2016 (inclusive) based solely on college performance. I loved it and the resulting banter -- @CtBlue03 had the great idea to take it a step further and poll the Fort to create our own Top 25 from the same era. I'll provide more comparisons and info about the polling throughout the day but, without further ado, I present the Official Fort Top 25 Players from 1997-2016 (Rank - Player (Mods Rank) -- each player is linked):
