The Calistoga native and former San Jose State quarterback will be the 28th coach elected to the Pro Football Hall of Fame.
Dick Vermeil stands on stage as a member of the 2022 NFL Football Hall of Fame class during the NFL Honors show Thursday, Feb. 10, 2022, in Inglewood, Calif. Dick Vermeil made quite a career out of being a meticulous, unrelenting, attentive and soft-hearted head football coach during five different decades. Those characteristics helped earn the 85-year-old a spot on the stage in Canton, Ohio, Saturday at the Pro Football Hall of Fame induction ceremonies.
Vermeil can tell you how many other Hall of Famers have been inducted before him and how many other coaches preceded him . He can’t, however, explain how he’s going to be able to fit his football life into the eight minutes allotted for each inductee’s speech. Does he have time to talk about his life growing up as a auto mechanic’s son in Calistoga, where he now has his own wine business? Should he share what his two years as a quarterback at San Jose State were like, as he did with reporters recently? Vermeil noted it was rather appropriate the Spartans went 5-14-1 during his 1956-57 seasons there.
