Now that Wittens playing again, it may be a while before another Cowboy gets in.

Roy Biscuit Williams?

Didn't Romo win a D-II prestigious award?

Landry/Gil Brandt last draft in 1988 produced some hits:
Irvin, Norton, & Chad Hennings (member of the college football hall of fame in 2006).

Irvin should be in the college football of fame.

love to see Timmy Newsome make it.
one of my favorites from Coach's last few teams in the late 80s.
solid player.
excellent blocker...excellent receiver too.

I don't really have a feel for whether Romo belongs in the College Hall. He had good numbers in college, leading Division I-AA in passing efficiency in 2001, and became the first Eastern Illinois play to have his number retired. I'm not sure he would be up for this honor, though, (or would have had his jersey number retired), if not for his pro success. He was a three-time All-American and OVC Player of the Year and won the Walter Payton Award, so I may just not understand what the criteria for the College Hall is. If it's a stats-based honors, there are a lot of QBs who put up much more gaudy stats in college.

Roy Williams was probably the most dominant defensive collegiate player I've ever watched, especially in the secondary.

But the pros..........not so much.

How long do you have to be out before you're eligible? Bet Kellen makes it.

I’m hoping a few old time Cowboys start going into Canton. Been pulling for Gil for awhile now he is in need to find my next person to pull for. I think all these guys have an argument and a few are way past due.

Chuck Howley
Charlie Waters
Lee Roy Jordan
Cliff Harris
Ralph Neely
George Andrie
John Niland
Everson Walls
Woody
Harvey Martin
Moose

Don’t have Ware on the list cause I think he will go in first time

With voters like Bob Ryan who have openly admitted to leaving guys from the Cowboys off to spite us I don't think the our 70s team will see guys in like it should. That team went to 5 super bowls in the decade. Losing three will keep Cliff,Howley, and LeRoy out who I feel are the most deserving and Drew Pearson.
