Buffs To Honor Salaam's Hall of Fame Selection At Saturday's Game

BOULDER – Rashaan Salaam, Colorado's 1994 Heisman Trophy winner, will be posthumously honored at Saturday's CU-UCLA game at Folsom Field with a National Football Foundation On-Campus Salute.

The game at Folsom Field begins at noon and will be televised by the Pac-12 Networks.

"If Rashaan was here, I think he would enjoy this honor and celebration of him being inducted into the National Football College Football of Fame," said his mother, Khalada Salaam-Alaji.

The NFF Hall of Fame On-Campus Salute program, which began with the inaugural College Football Hall of Fame Class in 1951, has become a hallowed tradition, and to this day the singular events remain the first of numerous activities in the Hall of Fame experience.
