Former Pittsburgh Steelers safety Troy Polamalu has been named to the College Football Hall of Fame. Polamalu was a three-year star at USC before becoming the first-round pick of the Steelers in 2003.
During Polamalu’s time at USC he accumulated 278 tackles, 29 tackles for a loss, 6 interceptions, 4 blocked punts, and 3 touchdowns. Much like his time in the NFL, Polamalu was one of the most explosive and dynamic players in college football.
This will be a nice warmup for Polamalu as he is also a semi-finalist for the Pro Football Hall of Fame. It’s no reach to think Polamalu will make it in on the first ballot.
