Nebraska legend Aaron Taylor named to the Nebraska Athletics Hall of Fame Class of 2025

Nebraska legend Aaron Taylor named to the Nebraska Athletics Hall of Fame Class of 2025 An all-time great Nebraska football player has been named to the Nebraska Athletics Hall of Fame Class of 2025. Aaron Taylor played for the Cornhuskers from 1993 to 97. Taylor holds the distinction of being the only football player in Nebraska history to earn All-America honors at two positions (left guard, center). He was a two-time first-team All-American and a three-time national champion. Taylor's No. 67 jersey was retired in 1998, and he was inducted into the College Football Hall of Fame in 2018. Joining Taylor in the 2025 class are Kevin Davis (men's gymnastics, 1985-88); Diandra Hyman (bowling, 1999-2002); Lisa Reitsma (volleyball, 1994-97); and Stephanie Thater (volleyball, 1989-92). Nebraska athletic director Troy Dannen had high praise for the five new Hall of Famers. 'We talk regularly in Husker Athletics about setting a standard by which everyone else will aspire to achieve. These Hall of Famers did that and more, and now inspire our current student-athletes to achieve greatness. We look forward to welcoming our 2025 Hall of Fame Class back to campus for our induction ceremony this fall, where we will celebrate their accomplishments and recognize their impact on the University of Nebraska.' The 2025 Nebraska Athletics Hall of Fame class will be inducted on Friday, Oct. 31, before being recognized during the Nebraska-USC football game on Saturday, Nov. 1.
