Answers:
1. What state is represented by the most different colleges that were attended by HOF inductees (JCs do not count)?*
Texas has had 11 different colleges that have been attended by Pro Football Hall of Famers, most of any state. California is represented by 9 schools, PA by 9 and Ohio by 7 for the next most.
2. Two Jersey numbers were worn by the most number of Hall of Famers (11 each). What are those 2 numbers?***
22 and 44
3. Every Jersey number from 00/0-99 was worn by a Hall of Fame inductee except for 6 numbers. What were those 6 numbers? Hint: 3 of them are in the 90s, from 0-89 there are only 3. ****
23, 43, 69, 90, 94, and 97
It seems odd to me that 22 and 44 would have more than anyone, but that 23 and 43 would have had none.
4. Which colors are represented by the names of HOF inductees?*
Brown, as in Jim Brown, Paul Brown, Rosey Brown and Willie Brown
I would have accepted Red, as in Red Badgro or Red Grange
Green as in Darrel Green or Joe Greene
White as in Randy White or Reggie White
5. The Top QB prospects in the 2011 draft come from Missouri(Gabbert)/Washington(Locker)/Auburn(Newton)/Arkansas(Mallet)/ and TCU(Dalton). Question: Since the inception of the draft in 1936 name the Quarterbacks that came from these 5 schools: Missouri/Washington/Auburn/Arkansas/TCU that were among the Top Ten draft picks in any draft. Hint: there are only 4. ##
LaMar McHan of Arkansas was the #2 overall pick in the 1954 draft.
Davey O'Brien of TCU was the #4 overall pick in the 1939 draft.
Sammy Baugh of TCU was the #6 overall pick in the 1937 draft
Travis Tidwill of Auburn was the #7 overall pick in the 1954 draft.
and that is it for QBs from those schools. Until April when I am sure of couple more will join this list.
6. Former Heisman Trophy winner Mark Ingram from Alabama is considered the top RB prospect in this draft. Question: Since 1980 only 1 other Alabama running backs has been selected in the first round of the NFL draft. Who? **
Shaun Rogers is correct in the year 2000
7. In that same period of time, 4 Ohio State RBs have been selected in the first round. Name the 4. **

9. Auburn and Oregon played for the National Championship earlier this year. Question: who were the last players from each Auburn and Oregon that were select by the Browns in the draft? ***
TJ Ward of Oregon was, of course, just drafted last year.
Ed King OG who was drafted in the 2d round in 1991 was the last Auburn player selected by the Browns.
10. Who is the youngest member of the Pro Football Hall of Fame? **
Marshall Faulk is correct who was originally drafted in 1994. Next are Emmit Smith and Shannon Sharpe, both taken in 1990.
