The defensive end played three years for the Hawkeyes from 1979 to 1981. He went on to play for the Patriots for eleven years and was inducted into the Pro Football Hall of Fame in 2008.

Also being elected is former USC quarterback Carson Palmer and former Eastern Illinois signal-caller Tony Romo. Former Kansas State running back Darren Sproles, Clemson running back C.J. Spiller and Oklahoma head coach Bob Stoops are also part of the 13-member class that features 11 players and two coaches.
