It’s the pinnacle of any sports career — making it into the Hall of Fame. With Ohio State being one of the best college programs of all time, you can bet that the Buckeyes have had their fair share of players and coaches that have been enshrined in Atlanta.
With the news of the latest College Football Hall of Fame ballot including former OSU players James Laurinaitis and Mike Doss, we thought it’d be fun to take a walk down memory lane and remember all the former Ohio State players that can already be referred to as HOF members.
Get ready, because there is a bunch of them — 24 to be exact. And while that pales in comparison to Notre Dame’s 44, it is still the fourth most of any program in the history of the sport. The other two ahead of the Buckeyes besides the Irish? USC is second with 30, and yes — Michigan — is third with 25 players having been inducted.
Here are all 23 players that wore the scarlet and gray and eventually made their way to the College Football Hall of Fame.
