The Pittsburgh Steelers of the 1970s won four Super Bowls and have ten members in the Football Hall of Fame, which would suggest that they are well-represented in Canton. However, many in Western Pennsylvania feel that there is a huge omission left in the black and yellow with L.C. Greenwood.

From the HBCU school of Arkansas-Pine Bluff, Greenwood proved to be a steal as the 238^th Pick in 1969.  A Steeler his entire career, Greenwood was a member of the famous Steel Curtain and played a crucial role in the Steelers' success, helping them win four Super Bowls in a five-year period. With six Pro Bowl selections, he was a formidable opponent for quarterbacks and had a significant impact on the game. Although sacks were not yet an official statistic, Greenwood recorded five of them in his four Super Bowl appearances. He was a tall, speedy defender who seemed to be everywhere on the field, and engulfed everything he touched

Despite being a Hall of Fame finalist six times, Greenwood has not yet been inducted. If another player from the 1970s Steelers team is inducted, it has to be L.C. Greenwood.  As for Pittsburgh, they have acknowledged Greenwood in their Hall of Honor and All-Time Team.
