Cannon selected to College Hall of Fame — again
By RALPH D. RUSSO, AP College Football Writer
NEW YORK (AP) — Billy Cannon was elected to the College Football Hall of Fame — "Again," LSU's 1959 Heisman Trophy winner said with a laugh.
Cannon was among 15 newly elected Hall of Famers announced Thursday by the National Football Foundation, along with Lou Holtz, Troy Aikman, Pat Fitzgerald and Don McPherson.
In the early 1980s, Cannon was voted into the Hall of Fame, but the honor was rescinded after he was arrested on federal counterfeiting charges. Cannon pleaded guilty and was sentenced to five years in prison in 1983. He served 2½ years.
He wasn't happy with the Hall of Fame at the time.
"There's an old Johnny Paycheck song, "Take This Job and Shove It ... " Cannon said, summing up his feelings at the time.
