Senior Bowl Announces Hall Of Fame/Rookies Of The Year

The Senior Bowl will induct five new members into the game’s Hall of Fame and recognize three Rookies of the Year. The members are former star quarterback Harry Agganis (Senior Bowl 1953), former head coach Norv Turner (most recent Senior Bowl 2005), former defensive tackle Booger McFarland (Senior Bowl 1999), former quarterback Jason Campbell (Senior Bowl 2005) and former safety Roman Harper (Senior Bowl 2006), and the Rookies of the Year are New Orleans Saints quarterback Tyler Shough (Overall), Seattle Seahawks offensive lineman Grey Zabel (NFC Rookie of the Year) and Denver Broncos running back RJ Harvey (AFC Rookie of the Year). The inductees and Rookies of the Year will be honored at the annual induction ceremony at The Grand Hotel Golf Club & Spa in Point Clear on May 3. In conjunction with the Hall of Fame festivities, the Senior Bowl is hosting its sixth annual Senior Bowl Charities Celebrity Golf Classic on May 4 at Lakewood Golf Club. This exclusive event will pair more than 20 foursomes with celebrities from across the football world, including the current honorees. Proceeds from the golf tournament will directly benefit the Senior Bowl’s Mobile Baldwin Athletic Partnership, which provides needed resources ranging from pants and jerseys to blocking sleds and video technology for underfunded public high school football programs in the two-county area. The Senior Bowl Hall of Fame was established in 1988 and includes many players who are also members of the Pro Football Hall of Fame in Canton, Ohio.
