Mark Richt has lost control of the HoF ballot
Posted on 6/7/22 at 8:37 am to skrayper
Well Tebow is in. That guaranteed
Posted on 6/7/22 at 8:57 am to skrayper
Seems like Tebow and Couch should be shoe ins. Langham also merits serious consideration.
Selfishly, I hope Richt gets in first ballot with his declining health. He deserves to have that celebration and recognition while still physically able

Long overdue...He should have been in the HoF decades ago. If it was anywhere near his direction, he was going to catch it.

Tebow gets in. Langham should, too.

My brother, (retired HS teacher) taught Willie Gault at Griffin High School. I met him a couple of times. Classy guy. Really nice kid. I hope he makes it.

I’m surprised he’s not already in. He is one the best OTs in Alabama history.

I don't know much about the criteria, but always wondered if Dak will be in. Based on some of the names I see here, seems like he has a shot when his time comes.

Is there a point to the College Football HOF? Over a thousand people already in, and you don't get a bust. Have to be looked up at a Kiosk.

This one is interesting.
On the one hand, made "the play that changed college football" in the first SECCG, scored a td in the two games before that(Auburn and MSU), had one of the best years I have ever seen from a db. But on the other hand, (and for the record, I do believe his version of the story), however his actions ended with Bama forfeiting wins in 1993. Right or wrong this may keep him out, and this is an impressive list full of players that were awesome in college.
