Mike Liedtke was a tone-setter for Illinois State’s run game
In the 2014 season, Mike Liedtke was a senior left tackle for Illinois State who graded out at 96% in a 45-26 win at South Dakota and helped power a 293-yard rushing day, earning Missouri Valley Football Conference Offensive Lineman of the Week honors. He was the kind of blocker coaches love: experienced, reliable, and nasty in the trench warfare, with a track record of opening lanes for high-volume runners like Marshaun Coprich. If you want an OL who brings toughness, consistency, and proven run-game impact, Liedtke fits that profile.
