The National Football Foundation announced the members of the 2025 College Football Hall of Fame class Wednesday, which featured some of the game's greatest coaches and players of all time. The class is headlined by Nick Saban and Urban Meyer among the four coaches selected,

Dennis Thurman and Darrin Smith were among the best Cowboys defenders of their eras, but both left their mark on the college gridiron first.

Meyer becomes the eighth coach from Ohio State to be voted into the College Football Hall of Fame joining other Buckeye greats Howard Jones (1910), John Wilce (1913-28), Francis Schmidt (1934-40), Woody Hayes (1951-78), Earle Bruce (1979-87), John Cooper (1988-2000) and Jim Tressel (2001-10).
