[rl] When piecing together a Dream Team of players that signed with Big Ten schools, it's exciting to think of the possibilities.

What would it be like to see Ryan Mallett whipping the ball around the field to guys like Arrelious Benn or Mark Dell?

How exciting would it be to see the punishing running style of John Clay complimented by the explosive style of Brandon Saine?

On defense, it would be next to impossible to complete passes on guys like Donovan Warren, Jordan Bernstine or James Scott.

Here is a look at what one Big Ten Signing Day Dream Team might look like.
