The ballot includes current Kansas State Wildcats‘ head coach Bill Snyder and three former Heisman Trophy winners – Nebraska Cornhuskers‘ quarterback Eric Crouch, former Colorado Buffaloes‘ running back Rashaan Salaam and former Texas Longhorns‘ running back Ricky Williams.

“We would like to thank CFP Executive Director Bill Hancock and his staff for the opportunity to announce our Hall of Fame Class in conjunction with the Championship Game,” said NFF President & CEO Steve Hatchell. “We believe the presence of the national media at the title game will significantly raise the profile of the announcement, allowing us to shine a much brighter light on the accomplishments of our game’s greatest legends.”
