His impact on Giants is still felt today
For several years now I have been on the “George Young belongs in the Pro Football Hall of Fame” bandwagon. Apparently, I have company.
ESPN’s Kevin Seifert lists the former New York Giants general manager as one of 10 eligible candidates who should already be enshrined in Canton.
George Young is a name that even middle-aged NFL fans might not recognize. They might not even realize, in fact, that the New York Giants -- winners of four Super Bowls in the past 30 years -- were a joke in the 1970s before Young was hired as general manager in 1979.
