John Cooper named to College Football Hall of Fame
http://www.limaohio.com/story.php?IDnum=52544

NEW YORK — Troy Aikman, Billy Cannon and John Cooper are among the 15 former players and coaches elected Thursday to the College Football Hall of Fame.

Cooper, who had a 111-43-4 record at Ohio State from 1988 to 2000, led the Buckeyes to a victory over Arizona State in the 1997 Rose Bowl. He also was the head coach at Tulsa and Arizona State before coming to Ohio State.

Aikman started his college career at Oklahoma, then transferred to UCLA. After two stellar seasons (1987-88) with the Bruins, he was drafted first overall by the Dallas Cowboys.

The only regret is that he had a difficult time beating Michigan.

1. Billy Cannon elected for the SECOND TIME
He was kicked out of the Hall in 82 for counterfeiting money or some such knuckleheadedness. Heisman Trophy winner, national champ in 59.
