Dallas Clark named to College Football Hall of Fame Ballot
Last year, Iowa Hawkeye fans saw Robert Gallery inducted into the National Football Foundation College Hall of Fame. This year, Dallas Clark perhaps? The former Hawkeye All-American tight end was officially named to the ballot today with voting to run through June 30. If Clark were to be selected to the Hall of Fame, his name would eventually join Gallery’s on the Kinnick Stadium Wall of Honor alongside Nile Kinnick, Aubrey Devine, Randy Duncan, Calvin Jones, Alex Karras, Gordon Locke, Chuck Long, Duke Slater, Larry Station, and Andre Tippett.
