Congratulations are surely in order to former SF 49ers offensive tackle Harris Barton, who was recently named to the 2021 College Football Hall of Fame class.
The 2021 class, officially announced on Monday, Jan. 11, included Barton, who solidified an excellent collegiate career at North Carolina between 1983 and 1986.
