Calvin Voted in Hall of Fame

Johnson said that he had not decided on who he will ask to present him for his induction speech, but said he had three in mind and was leaning toward Derrick Moore, who was Georgia Tech’s team chaplain during Johnson’s career and later its character-development coach. Moore has been a close friend and mentor since.

“I see this big figure through the glass, I’m like, That’s not your friend,” Johnson said. “So me, I’m just like, OK, do I need to go get my shotgun or what’s going on? Because I see a bunch of people outside my door. She’s like, Just go answer the dang door. I’m like, All right, all right, all right. I go answer the door, I peek around, it took about two seconds for it to sink in, and my head just raised up.”

 
Mediocre as in numbers because he only played nine seasons?
See this thread from 2010...

That catch reminds me of what a great WR Calvin was... but also how poorly served he was by Reggie Ball.
 
After watching him for a couple of games, I told some family members that he seemed to be able to make the ball change its flight path to come to him. Was at Clemson when he was a Freshman with a bunch of Clemson friends. They weren't happy. Just a few years earlier with Godsey as his QB and Fridge as his OC, he wins a Heisman.
 
Calvin's HoF enshrinement ceremony tix go on sale at 10 AM EST tomorrow (March 5). Ceremony is on August 8. It would be cool if there were more folks there wearing Tech apparel than Lions stuff. Anyway, I may not ever have another chance to see a fellow alumnus so honored, so I'm getting a ticket and going. Never been to the Hall anyway.
