<span style="color:#8B0000">Answers:</span></p>


<p>
1. What state is represented by the most different colleges that were attended by HOF inductees (JCs do not count)?*</p>

<p>
<span style="color:#8B0000">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.</span></p>


<p>
2. Two Jersey numbers were worn by the most number of Hall of Famers (11 each). What are those 2 numbers?***</p>

<p>
<span style="color:#8B0000">22 and 44</span></p>


<p>
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.  ****</p>

<p>
<span style="color:#8B0000">23, 43, 69, 90, 94, and 97</span></p>
<p>
It seems odd to me that 22 and 44 would have more than anyone, but that 23 and 43 would have had none.</p>


<p>
4. Which colors are represented by the names of HOF inductees?*</p>


<p>
<span style="color:#8B0000">Brown, as in Jim Brown, Paul Brown, Rosey Brown and Willie Brown</span></p>
<p>
I would have accepted Red, as in Red Badgro or Red Grange</p>
<p>
Green as in Darrel Green or Joe Greene</p>
<p>
White as in Randy White or Reggie White</p>





<p>
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.  ##</p>

<p>
<span style="color:#8B0000">LaMar McHan of Arkansas was the #2 overall pick in the 1954 draft.</span></p>
<p>
Davey O'Brien of TCU was the #4 overall pick in the 1939 draft.</p>
<p>
Sammy Baugh of TCU was the #6 overall pick in the 1937 draft</p>
<p>
Travis Tidwill of Auburn was the #7 overall pick in the 1954 draft.</p>
<p>
and that is it for QBs from those schools. Until April when I am sure of couple more will join this list.</p>



<p>
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? **</p>

<p>
<span style="color:#8B0000">Shaun Rogers is correct in the year 2000</span></p>


<p>
7. In that same period of time, 4 Ohio State RBs have been selected in the first round.  Name the 4. **</p>

<p>
<span style="color:#8B0000">Chris Wells 20009, Eddie George 1996, Robert Smith 1993, and Keith Byars 1986</span></p>


<p>
8. Who is the last player from Alabama taken by the Browns in the draft? (any position, any round) ***</p>

<p>
<span style="color:#8B0000">Antonio Langham was correct, taken in round 1 in 1994</span></p>


<p>
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? ***</p>

<p>
<span style="color:#8B0000">TJ Ward of Oregon was, of course, just drafted last year.</span></p>
<p>
Ed King OG who was drafted in the 2d round in 1991 was the last Auburn player selected by the Browns.</p>


<p>
10. Who is the youngest member of the Pro Football Hall of Fame? **</p>

<p>
<span style="color:#8B0000">Marshall Faulk is correct who was originally drafted in 1994.  Next are Emmit Smith and Shannon Sharpe, both taken in 1990.</span></p>
