Steven Jackson beats Marshall Faulk into Hall of Fame!


Well, Steven was inducted into a Hall of Fame last weekend, but it was the Southern Nevada Sports Hall of Fame. Article

Steven's actually considered a bit of a football pioneer in Las Vegas; colleges didn't recruit heavily for players there until he broke out as one of the nation's elite players at Oregon State. He scored five TDs for the Beavers in the 2003 Las Vegas Bowl, and before that, rushed for 81 TDs and nearly 6,400 yards in his high school career at Eldorado High.

The first inductee into the Southern Nevada Sports Hall of Fame? The legendary David Humm, in 1997. Steven also joins Jerry Tarkanian, Randall Cunningham, Lionel Hollins, Greg Maddux, Gerald Riggs, Robert Gamez, Matt Williams, Greg Anthony and Larry Grandmama Johnson.
