Matt Stinchcomb was clear in what he wanted his College Football Hall of Fame honor to represent.
The All-American offensive tackle from 1995-98 will represent Georgia at the Dec. 4, 2018 Hall of Fame awards’ dinner in New York. Stinchcomb was appreciative of the honor, but he wants it to recognize the four Bulldog teams he played on rather than his individual accolades.
In fact, Stinchcomb sees most awards as team-oriented accomplishments, except for a few exclusions such as the Heisman Trophy honor for Louisville’s Lamar Jackson in 2016.
“Any time one player is singled out, it’s a de facto team recognition,” Stinchcomb said.
