Here is a list of the 57 SuperWest college football players and coaches who have been inducted into the Pro Football Hall of Fame through 2023.

None from the SuperWest will be inducted this summer.

USC has landed the most in the Hall of Fame with 14, followed by Oregon and UCLA with six each, and Arizona State with five.

Located in Canton, Ohio, the Hall opened on September 7, 1963, to enshrine exceptional figures in the sport of professional football, including players, coaches, officials, franchise owners, and front-office personnel.

Most of them made their primary contributions to the game in the National Football League (NFL).

After the seven players are inducted in August for the Class of 2024 there will be a total of 378 members. Typically, between four and nine new inductees are enshrined every year.

For the 2020 class, a 20-person group consisting of five modern-era players and an additional 15 members, known as the “Centennial Slate,” were elected to the Hall of Fame to celebrate the 100th anniversary of the NFL.

The table below is searchable and sortable by the players and coaches, their school, and their year inducted. You’ll also find a breakdown of individuals by program at the bottom.
