2017 College Football Hall of Fame Ballot Features Three Spartans, Former Coach

EAST LANSING, Mich. - Three former Michigan State All-Americans - placekicker Morten Andersen, wide receiver Kirk Gibson and running back Lorenzo White - along with former Spartan head coach Darryl Rogers are featured on the National Football Foundation's 2017 (Football Bowl Subdivision) ballot for induction into the College Football Hall of Fame.

The ballot was emailed this week to the more than 12,000 NFF members and current Hall of Famers whose votes will be tabulated and submitted to the NFF’s Honors Courts, which deliberate and select the class. The FBS Honors Court, chaired by NFF Board Member and College Football Hall of Famer Archie Griffin from Ohio State, and the Divisional Honors Court, chaired by former Marshall head coach, longtime athletics director and NFF Board Member Jack Lengyel, include an elite and geographically diverse pool of athletic administrators, Hall of Famers and members of the media.
