Summary
Two UCLA legends, Ken Norton Jr. and John Lee, are on the ballot for the 2027 College Football Hall of Fame—marking a major milestone for players who left an indelible stamp on the game. Norton Jr., a dominant force in the 80s and First Team All-American, led UCLA in tackles for two seasons and later returned to coach the defense. Lee, a record-setting kicker and two-time All-American, holds multiple program marks and was a rare second-round NFL draft pick. Both meet strict Hall criteria and embody UCLA’s legacy—Norton Jr. with grit on the field and Lee with precision from the kicking tee. Their nominations are a well-earned tribute to their college greatness. Support the show: Get a discount at https://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
