Westbrook on 2018 College Football Hall of Fame Ballot

IRVING, Texas – Former University of Colorado wide receiver Michael Westbrook is one of 98 players and 31 coaches from the FBS on the 2018 ballot for induction into the College Football Hall of Fame, the National Football Foundation (NFF) and College Hall of Fame announced Thursday.

"It's an enormous honor to just be on the ballot when you think that more than 5.19 million people have played college football and only 987 players have been inducted," said NFF President & CEO Steve Hatchell. "The Hall's requirement of being a first-team All-American creates a much smaller pool of only 1,500 individuals who are even eligible.
