I just watch a slide show about which schools have produced the most NFL players. ND was #1. What to guess the next four?
Hall of Famers: 14
Pro Bowl selections: 191
Highest AV: Alan Page (144)
Most touchdowns: Tim Brown (105)
Most games played: John Carney (302)
Bottom line: Whether or not Notre Dame is the greatest program in NCAA history is up for debate, but there’s no denying the impact that the Fighting Irish football program has had on the NFL. Not only have they sent the most players to the league, but they also have sent the most players to the Pro Football Hall of Fame (14), which is perhaps an even better measure of the talent produced by a program.
