College Football Hall of Fame ballot includes Mizzou's Maclin, Pinkel

Former Missouri All-American Jeremy Maclin and former Tigers coach Gary Pinkel are both on the ballot for the 2022 induction class for the College Football Hall of Fame, as announced Wednesday by the National Football Foundation.

Maclin, now the head coach at Kirkwood High, appears on the ballot for the first time. Pinkel made his ballot debut in 2020.

Maclin, 33, was a first-team All-American all-purpose player in both 2007-08 and a two-time first-team All-Big 12 selection. After missing all of 2006 with a knee injury, the St. Louis native set the FBS freshman record for all-purpose yards (2,776) in 2007.
