FAYETTEVILLE -- Darren McFadden, a homegrown Arkansan, will now take his place among the greats in the College Football Hall of Fame.
McFadden was selected to join the hall in his first year of eligibility as part of a 15-member class in voting announced Monday morning by the National Football Foundation (NFF) and broadcast on ESPN. The class of inductees has been named in conjunction with the College Football Playoff national championship game since 2015.
The induction ceremony will take place Dec. 10 at the 62nd NFF awards dinner at the New York Hilton Midtown, and the group will be enshrined at the College Football Hall of Fame in Atlanta.
