Ole Miss Football: Patrick Willis Named To College Football Hall Of Fame

Monday the National Football Foundation announced the inductees for the 2019 class of the College Football Hall of Fame. Former Ole Miss football great Patrick Willis was one of 13 former college football First Team All-Americans who were selected to be inducted along with two former elite college coaches.

The selection to find the 13 former college greats and the two former standout coaches was a tedious one for the selection committee. The selections for the 2019 class came from a national ballot which consisted of 76 college football All-Americans and six elite and outstanding coaches within the FBS and then 100 players and 32 coaches from divisional ranks.
