For an offensive lineman to earn his way into a hall of fame is quite a feat as he has few, if any, personal statistics to claim. But, make no mistake about it, Pat Hicks earned every ounce of this year’s honor.
In 1993, he was singled out as a Kodak AFCA All-American as he helped lead Blue Raiders’ Hall of Fame running back Kippy Bayless to more than 1,200 yards rushing. Time and again, Hicks opened wide holes in the line of scrimmage for Bayless to dart through each and every game.
The Associated Press also pegged Hicks as one of its All-American selections not once, but twice, in 1993 and 1994.
The native of Hollow Rock, TN enjoyed a stellar 1994 campaign as MT rolled through the Ohio Valley Conference to a 7-1 record and an 8-2-1 mark before falling in the first round of the NCAA 1-AA playoffs at Marshall.
