I always wondered why this wasn't made a bigger deal.  It's a big deal.  Hopefully, the CF HOF will stay in one place for awhile.

There's no note on whether Crouch's stolen Heisman will accompany him to the HOF.

No Auburn players being inducted, so Rex could probably be trusted to hang onto it

Voters just weren't ready for a sophomore Heisman winner.....

Byars wasn't entertaining enough despite equal production of others on the list.

I hate when people consider sports to be entertainment.

Next thing you'll tell me people will start ranking the best movies of all time based on how much money they made, rather than how much they enjoyed them

probably his most famous run, but not a great run

I was at that game. Still remember yelling he lost his shoe. That was a really wild game.

Many years ago when one played Fantasy Football on pencil and paper,  I rode Keith Byars along with Randall Cunningham to a FF title.

Byers was no Bo Jackson in Super Techmo Bowl, but with Randle Cunningham in the back field he didn't need to be.
