Their Moment: A who’s who of the 2018 Hall of Fame Class

The Canadian Football Hall of Fame and Museum’s stellar Class of 2018 includes one of the most decorated offensive linemen ever, Canadian football’s legendary ‘professor emertius’, a university running back that rewrote records, a shutdown defensive back turned Eskimos coach, an incredible player who lined up on both sides of the line of scrimmage, the second-ever punter to be an inductee and a trailblazer who proved a Canadian could dominate the game at defensive end.

After being named in March, the gentleman below are set to officially be inducted into the hall this weekend with festivities beginning Friday in Hamilton with the official induction ceremony and halftime celebration on Saturday night when the Tiger-Cats host the Calgary Stampeders (click here for tickets).

This year’s inductees: Frank Cosentino, Paul Brûlé, Scott Flory, Barron Miles, Tom Hugo, Hank Ilesic and Brent Johnson.

 

Hall of Fame Profiles
 
HOF Profile: Cosentino played and wrote his way into history
Being enshrined in the Builders category, but Cosentino is worthy of just about any classification when it comes to having his name alongside the league’s greats.
 
HOF Profiles: Miles, "I think I was blessed with a gift."
Whether it was a gift, or whether it was just pure effort, former defensive back Barron Miles is set to have his name go down as an all-time great in the Hall of Fame.
 
HOF Profile: Johnson, "It's just a level of intensity and it won't be replicated"
Brent Johnson says the level of intensity is something you can’t match in any everyday job as he gets set to have his name enshrined into the Hall of Fame.
 
HOF Profile: A dream come true for Hank Ilesic
Once a dreamer, Hank Ilesic now will have his name forever carved in CFL history as his bust will be among others from the Edmonton Eskimos dynasty.
 
HOF Profile: Scott Flory, a lover of the game
Once one of the stellar cast of the Alouettes’ offensive line in the 2000’s, Scott Flory is honoured to have his name enshrined into the Hall of Fame.
 
HOF Profile: A ring designed for the Hall, now one for Brule
Entering the Hall of Fame as an amateur inductee, Paul Brule enjoyed a lengthy career at St. FX and relishes the fact he was a large contributor to the design of the HOF rings well before being inducted.
 
HOF Profile: Hugo found a way to shine, regardless of situation
Wherever you put him on the field, Hugo found a way to shine, as will his bust alongside many others in the Canadian Football Hall of Fame.
