With 75 of the best in college football history on this year’s Hall of Fame ballot, there’s certainly some steep competition, but 3 all-time Ohio State greats were named to Hall’s 2018 ballot on Thursday. The results will be announced January 8, 2018 in the lead up to the 2018 College Football Playoff Championship Game. With a cap of just three nominees per school for the national ballot, the three who made the cut for OSU this time are running backs Keith Byars and Jim Otis and tackle Chris Ward.

It’s practically a crime Byars isn’t already inducted.
