LOGAN, Utah – Clyde Brock, who lettered one season at Utah State, was one of four players announced as a 2020 Canadian Football Hall of Fame (CFHOF) inductee on Thursday.
 
The 2020 class featured four legends from the Canadian Football League (CFL), a record-setting university quarterback and a foundational program-builder. Inducted under the player category were Brock and Freddie Childress, both offensive linemen, along with quarterbacks Greg Vavra and Henry Burris, who headlined the 2020 class.
 
In the builder category, former Calgary Stampeders head coach and current president and general manager John Hufnagel, as well as former Saint Mary's University (Halifax, Nova Scotia, Canada) coach and athletics director Larry Uteck (posthumously) were inducted.
 
Brock spent 12 seasons with the Saskatchewan Roughriders as an offensive tackle from 1964-75, playing in 169 regular season games, 27 playoff games and four Grey Cups. He was selected as a CFL All-Star from 1966 to 1969, and was named a Division All-Star from 1965-69.
 
Brock was a member of the Roughriders' first-ever Grey Cup winning team in 1966 and was inducted into Saskatchewan's Plaza of Honour in 1995. He was endorsed for induction into the CFHOF by the Veterans' Committee.
 
Due to concerns involving the COVID-19 pandemic, the CFHOF enshrinement ceremony previously planned for Aug. 14, 2020, has been postponed to 2021.
 
Brock lettered in 1959 for the Aggies under first-year head coach John Ralston.
