Episode Details

The College Football Hall of Fame ballot is out for the induction class of 25, and it is a STAR-STUDDED list. Nick Saban and Aaron Donald are among the no-brainers, but the rest of the choices for the members of the National Football Foundation will be brutally difficult. Andy breaks down the candidates.

Andy also explains why Mike Leach isn’t on the ballot — and why he should be.
