gold star for USAHOF

The problem with running a Hall of Fame-related website is that many of the big ones we cover all have announcements within months of each other.  The backbone of what we do is list-related, resulting in a long push to revise what we already have, specifically now with our Football and Basketball Lists.

At present, we have a minor update as we have completed the next twenty-five of the 2024 Football List, which will expand to 400, and you can comment on and vote on:

The new 301 to 325:

301. Warrick Dunn
302. Levon Kirkland
303. Roddy White
304. Lou Rymkus
305. Kyle Williams
306. Willie Galimore
307. Keith Lincoln
308. Jerry Norton
309. Bobby Walston
310. Sherrill Headrick
311. Wayne Walker
312. Ryan Kalil*
313. Julian Peterson
314. Casey Hampton

Thank you all for your patience. We will soon unveil more changes to the football, basketball and hockey lists.

317. Ron McDole

Ron McDole’s professional football career got off to a slow start as the former Nebraska Cornhusker did not accomplish much in 1961 as a rookie with the St. Louis Cardinals.  1962 was worse, as he migrated to the Houston Oilers of the American Football League and played even less.

Ron McDole made his Pro Football debut with the St. Louis Cardinals in 1961, after which he was a Houston Oiler for four Games.  McDole stayed in the AFL with the Buffalo Bills, where he had his greatest success, winning two AFL Championships and was twice an AFL All-Star. This didn’t mean that when he signed with the Washington Redskins in 1971 that he didn’t have a lot offer his new team.

34. Ron McDole

Ron McDole would become a member of the AFL All-Time Second Team and like so many who made our Buffalo Bills Top 50, McDole was a member of the two consecutive AFL Championship Teams.  McDole would also become a two time AFL All-Star, and was one of the better Defensive Ends of his day.
