Delaware State’s 2011 Hall-of-Fame class also includes former NFL standout Darnerian McCants, a 2001 grad. McCants played six seasons in the NFL, including stints with the Washington Redskins, Eagles and Baltimore Ravens. As a senior at Delaware State in 2000, he was named to three All-America teams after leading all Division I-AA players with 18 touchdown receptions, which still stands as DSU and Mid-Eastern Athletic Conference records.
