That is pretty awesome. I watched him play football in high school and was just amazed that the biggest guy on the field was the fastest guy.

Saw that and it is great news.

Congrats Frank and well deserved. I watched him play a lot of baseball when I was a student. An aluminum bat was a scary thing in his hands. Few pitchers wanted to throw to him.

I am also glad Frank got in and some of the steroid users are still waiting.

I hope no juicers ever get in.

Just saw, and I find this hard to believe, Hurt is the first SEC baseball player to make the HOF. (I can't believe Will Clark isn't in yet)

First SEC player to get in, but not the first player from an SEC school (guys got in who played college before the SEC formed).

Really nice short version of Franks HOF speech. Wait for the BIG War Damn Eagle at the end.
