USC Athletic Programs Lead All Other Schools In Hall Of Fame Statistic

Your USC Trojans have achieved something pretty extraordinary in the history of college athletics. Per a USC Athletics tweet, they have placed 22 players in the Football, Basketball and Baseball Halls of Fame, an NCAA record.

Two baseball players, both pitchers made the cut, after enjoying extended MLB careers. 10-time All-Star southpaw Randy Johnson, a five-time Cy Young Award winner and a 2001 World Series winner while with the Arizona Diamondbacks, enjoyed a 21-year pro career from 1988-2009. In addition to the Diamondbacks, he played for the Montreal Expos, Seattle Mariners, Houston Astros, New York Yankees, and San Francisco Giants.

12-time All-Star right hander Tom Seaver, a three-time Cy Young winner, 1969 World Series champ with the New York Mets, and the 1967 NL Rookie of the Year, blew minds in the MLB from 1967-1986.

In basketball, the Trojans boast six Hall of Famers. USC's two (so far) NBA players enshrined in Springfield are eight-time All-Star and four-time champion shooting guard Bill Sharman, plus five-time All-Star and one-time champion combo guard Paul Westphal. Chicago Bulls small forward DeMar DeRozan, a six-time All-Star and three-time All-NBA honoree who's had significantly less postseason success than Sharman or Westphal, is looking like a borderline Hall of Fame case, though he'll be in the league for years to come still.

Four Women of Troy superstars made the cut: pre-WNBA sharpshooter Cheryl Miller; eight-time Los Angeles Sparks All-Star (a two-time champ and three-time WNBA MVP) Lisa Leslie; nine-time All-Star Houston Comets/Los Angeles Sparks/Seattle Storm combo forward Tina Thompson (a four-time champ); and Thompson's Comets teammate for those four titles, three-time All-Star guard Cynthia Cooper-Dyke.

14 football players have made the Pro Football Hall of Fame: running back Marcus Allen; offensive tackle Tony Boselli; end Red Badgro (who also balled pro baseball), halfback and wide receiver Frank Gifford; defensive back Ronnie Lott; offensive guard, offensive tackle, and center Bruce Matthews; offensive tackles Ron Mix, Anthony Munoz, and Ron Yary; safety Troy Polamalu; linebacker Junior Sea; wide receiver Lynn Swann; defensive back Willie Wood; and, uh, one other guy.
