PULLMAN – Rueben Mayes, a former record-setting All-America running back at Washington State, has been selected for induction into the College Football Hall of Fame, the National Football Foundation announced today.The rest of the story is here.
Very exciting news for the Cougar Nation!
I'm ashamed to say that I never really appreciated Rueben Mayes' fame until I walked into an Applebee's restaurant in Laurel, MS and in their lobby was a framed poster of Rueben. I was so shocked to see it that I asked Russ, "Why do they have a poster of a guy from Pullman?" Needless to say, Russ looked at me like I was crazy.

There will not be a classier gentleman enshrined therein.
Ditto. I know Rueben and his family. He's the ultimate role model for all college and pro athletes.
