Ohio State Greats Mike Doss, James Laurinaitis and Chris Ward on 2021 College Football Hall of Fame Ballot

Mike Doss is the newest former Ohio State football player to be nominated for induction into the College Football Hall of Fame.

Doss joins fellow Buckeye greats James Laurinaitis, who is in his second year on the ballot, and Chris Ward, who is in his fourth, as one of three nominees from Ohio State for the College Football Hall of Fame's class of 2021.

Each school is allowed a maximum of three nominees, who also must have received first-team All-American honors during his career, must be at least 10 years removed from his collegiate career and no longer playing professionally and must have played college football within the last 50 years to be eligible for Hall of Fame induction.
