Roy Williams, Oklahoma

Antwaan Randle El, Indiana

and I'd give the 3rd vote to LaVar Arrington, Penn State

over Reggie Bush, because as far as I know, LaVar didn't take $$$

I'd put Corey Moore on my ballot.  More career sacks and TFL than Freeney, but didn't have much of an NFL career.  This being the COLLEGE football HOF, Moore should get in, ahead of Freeney (but won't).
.
Corey Moore, DE, Virginia Tech
Eric Berry, S, Tennessee
Mark Messner, DT, Michigan

The coaches are important, but not sexy
Title: Re: College Football Hall of Fame Ballot
Post by: ELA on June 03, 2021, 04:25:08 PM
Reggie Bush
Rashaan Salaam
Peter Warrick

Wouldn't vote for any of those coaches
Title: Re: College Football Hall of Fame Ballot
Post by: FearlessF on June 03, 2021, 04:42:33 PM
Rashaan Salaam and Peter Warrick were tough on the Blackshirts

luckily didn't face Reggie

I wasn't overly impressed by any of the coaches, but Pinkel did get Mizzou to a #1 ranking.

The rules about the coaches are fairly odd. You need to win 60 percent on your games and coach 10 years. 

So Hayden Fry isn’t eligible. Barry Alvarez was a couple games from not being eligible. Erk Russell and his three titles isn’t eligible.

Champ Bailey.   With all due respect to Charles Woodson, Bailey was every bit as good in college as Woodson.   

Michael Crabtree, abused people as a Fr. And Soph.  I think he'll be penalized for being in Leach off.  

Warrick Dunn, maybe best ACC rb ever.

Bailey and Dunn were my next two out.

Crabtree was great, but he's like the Tim Couch of WRs

Picking 3 is dumb.  There's like 15 guys where I thought "he has to be on it".

I was shocked how many guys weren't already in it.  Rashaan Sallaam won a Heisman 30 years ago

The best tailback in Wisconsin history should be on that list.

I didn't respond to this earlier, but he was technically considered a "unique case" and thus exempted from the requirement. 

Thus making it all the more dumb.

Brian Calhoun was a hell of a back.

The only reason not is his position has virtually no chance.

I mean, it's just a random slideshow that someone did and then someone else made into a graphic. 

It is literal clickbait turned portable (and therefor no longer clickbait).

I'm too am not eligible, but that's what I'm talking about. I'm talking about the list - the one Trevor Lawrence is on. He's not eligible either.

seems 247 put that minimum at the Boise St. number
