Rashaan Salaam won’t have to wait much longer to get his roses.
The late Colorado Buffaloes running back headlines the 2022 College Football Hall of Fame class announced on Monday. Salaam becomes the tenth CU alumni enshrined in Atlanta and joins his former teammate Michael Westbrook, who was part of last year’s class.
The College Football Foundation released the names of this year’s class which included Stanford’s Andrew Luck, Penn State’s LaVar Arrington and Georgia’s Champ Bailey. Salaam was the only former Heisman winner in this year’s class. Luck was a two-time runner-up for the award in back-to-back years starting in 2010.
