Last year’s Hall of Fame class included the former National Championship-winning head coach Bob Stoops. He is the all-time winningest coach in school history after he passed fellow Hall of Fame coach Barry Switzer. The Oklahoma Sooners could be adding two more members to the hall if all goes accordingly.

The National Football Foundation and College Football Hall of Fame announced the ballot for the 2022 class.

“It’s an enormous honor to just be on the College Football Hall of Fame ballot considering more than 5.47 million people have played college football and only 1,038 players have been inducted,” said NFF President and CEO Steve Hatchell. “The Hall’s requirement of being a First-Team All-American creates a much smaller pool of about 1,500 individuals who are even eligible. Being in today’s elite group means an individual is truly among the greatest to have ever played the game, and we look forward to announcing the 2022 College Football Hall of Fame Class early next year.”
