It's that time! We are officially counting down the weeks to the 2025 NCSHOF Induction Celebration by highlighting our 11 inductees - that means we're 11 weeks away!

Greg Ellis was a consensus first-team All-American in 1997 as a senior at The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill. The Carolina Football all-time sack leader (32.5) was selected in the first round of the NFL draft (No. 8 overall by Dallas). Ellis played 11 seasons for the Dallas Cowboys and one for the Las Vegas Raiders, making 84 sacks. He played in the 2007 Pro Bowl when he was named the NFL’s Comeback Player of the Year after an Achilles injury had ended his previous season prematurely. Ellis, one of only four Tar Heels to earn first-team All-Atlantic Coast Conference honors three times, was an All-State football player at East Wake High School and the 1993 North Carolina High School Athletic Association Male Athlete of the Year.
