It has been long overdue. According to Dale Lolley of DK Pittsburgh Sports, Steelers assistant personnel director from 1970 to 1989 Bill Nunn is a finalist to enter the Pro Football Hall of Fame as a contributor in 2021.
Nunn joined the Steelers in a part-time capacity in 1967 as part of the scouting staff. Working as the managing editor at the Courier, Nunn became an expert when it came to players at historical back colleges and universities. Working on a “Black College All-America Team,” Nunn’s extensive knowledge was something the Steelers tapped into.
