Every year around this time the National Football Foundation releases its ballot for the year’s College Football Hall of Fame class. From this list about 10-15 players and coaches will be honored as an inductee of the next year’s class. This prestigious honor is owned by just .02% of college football players who have played throughout the years.
This year’s class has the potential for some huge star power with sure-fire NFL Hall of Famers and previous Super Bowl winners being included. You could almost field a team of players from this and be competitive in the NFL this year! Well, probably not, but it’d be close! Let’s list some of the biggest names from this year’s ballot…
Charles Woodson, Michigan
Calvin Johnson, Georgia Tech
Tony Gonzalez, California
Eric Dickerson, SMU
Troy Polamalu, USC
Ed Reed, Miami (FL)
Ray Lewis, Miami (FL)
Warren Sapp, Miami (FL)
Patrick Willis, Ole Miss
Frank Beamer, Virginia Tech (Coach)
Mack Brown, Texas (Coach)
Jim Carlen, West Virginia (Coach)
