| 9th May, 2007 - 12:54 pm | AP - Doug Flutie was elected to the College Football Hall of Fame on Wednesday in his first year of eligibility, joining Ahmad Rashad and Anthony Thompson in the newest class of players and coaches honored by the National Football Foundation.
Flutie won the Heisman Trophy in 1984 as quarterback for Boston College, the same season he pulled off one of the most famous plays in college football history. His 48-yard touchdown pass to Gerard Phelan as time expired gave the Eagles a 47-45 victory over Miami.
Flutie passed for 10,579 yards in his college career, and went on to play 13 seasons in the NFL and eight in the CFL. On Tuesday, Flutie became the first non-Canadian elected to Canada's Sports Hall of Fame. [READ] |
