LSU's Kevin Faulk named to 2019 College Football Hall of Fame ballot

Former LSU running back Kevin Faulk is one of 76 players on the 2019 College Football Hall of Fame ballot announced on Monday by the National Football Foundation and the College Hall of Fame. Six coaches from the FBS level are also on the ballot.

Faulk, who is currently the Director of Player Development for LSU, is the school's all-time leading rusher (4,557 yards) and is also the SEC's all-time leader in all-purpose yards (6,833).

"To be listed among this group is extremely humbling and a tremendous honor," Faulk said in an LSU press release. "I was fortunate during my career to be surrounded by outstanding teammates and coaches and without them, nothing that I accomplished on the football field would have been possible.
