ASU kicker Luis Zendejas debuts on college Hall of Fame ballot

Posted

Former Arizona State Kicker Luis Zendejas will appear on the College Football Hall of Fame Ballot for the first time.

The ballot, featuring 78 players and seven coaches from the NCAA’s Football Bowl Subdivision and 99 players and 33 coaches from outside the FBS, was unveiled Tuesday.

Zendejas was a 1983 First Team All-American who finished his career as the NCAA’s all-time leader in scoring with 380 points. He is now tied for 58th on that list, trailing the leader by 150 points. Zendejas was a four-time All-Pac-10 selection, and missing only one of 138 career point-after tries, he boasts the highest PAT percentage (99.3%) in ASU history.

Other first-timers on the ballot include Georgia cornerback Champ Bailey, Syracuse defensive end Dwight Freeney, Kansas State running back Darren Sproles, Florida State kicker Sebastian Janikowski, Miami quarterback Ken Dorsey and Oklahoma coach Bob Stoops.

Other ASU candidates returning to the ballot are defensive back David Fulcher (1983-85), defensive end Al Harris (1975-78) and coach Darryl Rogers, who finished his 20-year coaching career heading the Sun Devils from 1980 to 1984. Northern Arizona running back Archie Amerson (1995-96) is also on the ballot.
