Herschel Walker, one of the greatest college football players of all time, will soon be immortalized in clay on the Georgia campus. Stan Mullins, a sculptor in Athens, is currently finishing a statue of the 1982 Heisman Trophy winner, which he hopes will go up on Georgia’s campus.

Mullins previously created a statue of legendary Georgia coach Vince Dooley for the school, and has big hopes for the Walker statue. The Atlanta Journal-Constitution has more:

“The hope is to get Herschel down here to help me finish it himself,” said Mullins, a UGA art school grad.
