Well-deserved.

He'll be enshrined at some point.

Isn't SU like in Top 10 of schools with players in the HOF?

Yep - just looked - Top 8. Tied with Alabama with 8.

oh yeah, he is a lock, just a question of how long it will take

Agree. There is quite a pretty good waiting list to get in, but he will.

If he hadn't missed that FG in the playoffs for Minnesota, would he have been the only kicker in history to b3 perfect through both the regular and post season?

Well-deserved.

Yup.

He should have won the Heisman his senior year. He was clearly the best college football player on the planet.

 

[FRANKIEFAN]

He should be in automatically surprised he isn't already but he played so long. He was still pretty good at the end after leaving Indy had a good year in Arizona but playing so long might hurt him a little its been a while since he was a star and dominant.

Next up?

Chandler Jones?

Hope so. Arizona is a bad place to spend your prime noone pays attention to that team. He can get to top 5 all time in sacks hes 43 away from 5th place and 34 away from 4th and Strahan.

My favorite Freeny moment was the night he sacked Vick five times in the Dome. I hated all that "Beamer Ball" garbage. VT fans are the worst.

That and the Auburn game post 9-11

He for a few hours diverted many folks attention away from the horror of the attack. I'll never forget attending that game.

 

[Scooch]

Freeney was the most impactful college player I ever had the good fortune to watch regularly, and that includes McNabb and Flutie.

 

[Noexcuse]

Just for old times sake.

He hit Vick so hard so often that day he ruptured his spleen

That game was loud

When we played at Knoxville in 2001 (that place was so fun, everyone should do it), pretty much any Vol fan's comment after the game was we just couldn't block #54.

The Vol fans were booing for awhile in that game.

You shouldn't be surprised he isn't already in. There's a mandatory 5 year wait to become eligible after your last playing year. His last year was 2017.

I'm a stickler for accuracy. I think the official number was 4.5 sacks. But I think he missed most, if not all, of the second half.
