In a move stirring up cheers from fans and coaches alike—including USC’s Lincoln Riley—the College Football Hall of Fame is tweaking its criteria, inching the bar down just enough to welcome Leach’s legend into the fold. Finally, a recognition that honors more than just numbers. Curious how this shift changes the game for other overlooked icons? Let’s dive in. LEARN MORE.
