Who are the five best defensive players in Baylor history? Much of the glory goes to players from an earlier age of BU football, though many of the names will still stand out.
5. Vann McElroy
This former safety formed a formidable duo with No. 1 on this list in the early 1980s. McElroy was a ball hawk, turning interceptions into an art form.
4. Daryl Gardener
The defensive tackle was a force of nature in the trenches and was consistent throughout his four years in Waco. He finished his career with 15 sacks and was a first-round draft pick in 1996.
