The Alabama Crimson Tide college football team competes as part of the National Collegiate Athletic Association (NCAA) Division I Football Bowl Subdivision (FBS), and represents the University of Alabama in the Western Division of the Southeastern Conference (SEC). The College Football Hall of Fame was established in 1951 to honor the careers of selected student-athletes who have competed in college football as either a player or coach.[1] Since its inaugural class that year, Alabama has had 23 persons elected to the Hall of Fame as either a player or coach of the Crimson Tide.[2]

The first Alabama inductees into the Hall of Fame were Don Hutson and Frank Thomas as part of the inaugural class in 1951.[3] The most recent inductee was Derrick Thomas as part of the 2014 class.[4]

Notes

  1. ↑ Although Frank Howard played guard for Alabama from the 1928 to 1930 seasons, he was inducted to the Hall of Fame in recognition of his accomplishments as head coach at Clemson and as a result is not included as part of Alabama's listing.[5]
