Vince Young headlines College Football Hall of Fame inductees

The 2019 College Football Hall of Fame class was officially inducted at the 62nd National Football Federation Annual Awards Dinner on Tuesday.

Former Texas quarterback Vince Young (2003-05) headlined the list of 13 former players and two coaches. Young, who led Texas to the national championship in 2005, was one of three runners-up in the Heisman Trophy voting to be inducted, along with Notre Dame receiver Raghib "Rocket" Ismail (1988-90) and Arkansas running back Darren McFadden (2005-07).

Dennis Erickson, who had head-coaching stints at Idaho, Wyoming, Washington State, Oregon State, Arizona State and, most notably, Miami, where he won a pair of national titles, was inducted alongside coach Joe Taylor.
