Rick is joined by football legend, Dan Hampton this week, who just got inducted into the College Football Hall of Fame.
Hampton, a Jacksonville High School product, earned All-America honors in 1978 when he logged 98 tackles, including 17 tackles for loss, and was named the Southwest Conference defensive player of the year.
The No. 4 pick of the 1979 NFL Draft by the Chicago Bears, Hampton went on to earn four Pro Bowl selections and was a member of the NFL 1980’s All-Decade team.
Hampton, part of the dominating Bears defense that won the Super Bowl for the 1985 season, was a 1991 inductee into the University of Arkansas Sports Hall of Honor and a 1992 inductee into the Arkansas Sports Hall of Fame. He was inducted into the Pro Football Hall of Fame in 2002.
Hampton was also selected as the No. 2 player on the Arkansas Democrat-Gazette’s all-time list of the top 10 Razorbacks in the NFL in 2020, behind only Lance Alworth.
