Not sure if this has been brought up before but there are 11 colleges that have produced 5 or more NFL Hall of Famers, 5 of them are big 10 schools.
Here are the eleven
Southern California (11)
Notre Dame (10)
Michigan (8)
Alabama (7)
Ohio State (7)
Syracuse (7)
Illinois (6)
Minnesota (6)
Oregon (6)
Pittsburgh (6)
Penn State (5)
depending on future expansion up to 8 of the 11 could end up being big 10 schools. and yes I realize many of the big 10 schools are amongst the oldest in the nation so that increases the likelihood of this, but I thought it was interesting nonetheless.
Here is a link to a breakdown by school for those interested
