The College Football Hall Of Fame just revealed their class of 2018 and some big hitters are on that list, starting with Charles Woodson.
Woodson, the 1997 Heisman Trophy winner and National Champion, was a shut down corner for the Michigan Wolverines who also got to play on the offensive side of the ball. His college resume is basically as stacked as one could possibly be- 2x first-team All-American, Big Ten Defensive Player of the Year and winner of the Walter Camp Award, the Bronko Nagurski Trophy, the Chuck Bednarik Award and the Jim Thorpe Award.
