Former Clemson Head Coach Danny Ford is on the ballot for selection to the National Football Foundation Hall of Fame Class of 2017. This is the third time Ford has been listed as a candidate.
The class will be announced in early January of 2017 in conjunction with the College Football Playoff national Championship game in Tampa, Fla. The 2017 class will be inducted at the 60th NFF Annual Awards Dinner Dec. 5, 2017, at the landmark Waldorf Astoria Hotel in New York City. The inductees will be permanently enshrined at the new College Football Hall of Fame in Atlanta later that December.
