After it had been rumored last year, there was some news a few days ago that Pitt will be creating a Hall of Fame. Personally, I think this is a great idea that’s long overdue with how many great athletes the school has churned out over the years. There are just too many all-time greats not to have a formalized Hall of Fame.
You can think of many deserving players and coaches, obviously. It wouldn’t take most super fans long to probably rattle off 20 names or so. I don’t know how many will be in the inaugural class but if you’re giving me five slots, here’s who’s getting them:
- Tony Dorsett
- Marshall Goldberg
- Charles Smith
- Jock Sutherland
- John Woodruff
The list is football heavy and there’s no real way around it.
