Vincent played four stellar years for the Badgers and became one of the best cornerbacks in program history.
The New Jersey native finished his Badger career with 42 games played in four years, four interceptions, one pick-six and 90 combined kick and punt returns for a total of 1258 yards and three touchdowns.
Though this is an only-college honor, Vincent also went on to play 15 NFL seasons for four teams–most notably the Philadelphia Eagles whom he made three NFC Championships with and was a pivotal cog in the secondary.
The former Badger will try to join the 15 former Badger players or coaches currently in the Hall of Fame–namely Barry Alvarez, Ron Dayne and Joe Thomas.
