Welcome, By-Godders, to The Shotgun Throwdown, WVU’s best place for sports links, information, sophomoric humor, and daily distractions.

COLLEGE FOOTBALL HALL OF FAME CANDIDATES

West Virginia has two candidates on the 2023 ballot for the College Football Hall of Fame. Former consensus All-American defensive back Aaron Beasley and head coach Jim Carlen are the two Mountaineers on the ballot.

Beasley led the nation in interceptions in 1994 with 10 and was a two-time All-Big East defender. He also holds the WVU record for career pass breakups with 38.

Carlen went 25-13-3 during his four years at WVU from 1966-69.
