   NEW YORK (AP) - The latest class of College Football Hall of Famers is loaded on the defensive line. Defensive tackles Marty Lyons of Alabama, Russell Maryland of Miami, Doug English of Texas and Rob Waldrop of Arizona were among the 14 players chosen for induction. Also headed for the Hall is Deion Sanders, who turned cornerback into a glamour position at Florida State from 1985-88. On Monday, it was announced that 1995 Heisman Trophy winner Eddie George from Ohio State was heading for the Hall Fame.  

   Two former coaches were elected: Lloyd Carr who won 75 percent of his games and the 1997 national championship in 13 seasons at Michigan and Air Force's Fisher DeBerry who led the Falcons to a winning record in 17 of his 23 seasons as coach. The Hall of Fame selection of 1995 Heisman Trophy winner Eddie George from Ohio State was announced Monday.
