Michigan Football: 2010s All-Decade team for the Wolverines

OT: Mason Cole, Taylor Lewan

Cole (2014-17): 51 consecutive starts – 38 at LT, 13 at C

A versatile lineman, Cole was a four-year letterman for the Wolverines.

He became the first true freshman in the history of Michigan football to start a season-opener on the offensive line vs. Appalachian State in 2014. Cole would start 25 consecutive games at left tackle prior to moving to center in 2016.

An East Lake (Tarpon Springs, FL) product, Cole moved back to LT for his senior season in 2017. He finished his Michigan career as a three-time All-Big Ten honoree.

While he was a Hoke recruit, Cole was one of the most important players on the team throughout Harbaugh’s first three years at the helm.

Lewan (2010-13): 48 starts at LT, including 41 consecutive

A four-star in the 2009 class, Lewan arrived on-campus with college-ready size. After redshirting in 2009, he made his first start in 2010 vs. Bowling Green and immediately became one of the top tackles in college football.

Beginning in his sophomore season, the accolades started piling up for the Arizona recruit. He was named an All-Big Ten second-team selection by the coaches and received an honorable mention from the media.

A two-time Rimington-Pace Offensive Lineman of the Year Award winner, Lewan was named first-team All-Big Ten by both the coaches and the media in 2012 and 2013. Presented annually to the Big Ten’s top offensive lineman, Lewan is one of just five players to win the Rimington-Pace Award twice.

A two-time first-team All-American, Lewan is the last Michigan football offensive lineman to receive the honor.

Honorable mentions: Ben Braden (2013-16), Erik Magnuson (2013-16)
