Kevin Mawae Hall Of Fame

Kevin Mawae ASU

Former NFL center and current Arizona State offensive analyst Kevin Mawae was inducted into the Pro Football Hall of Fame on Saturday.

“Today I stand at the doorstep of football immortality,” Mawae said in his speech. “I knock on this door and I tell all of you, I am home!”

As most Hall of Fame induction speeches goes, Mawae’s was emotional as he thanked his parents.

His father served 23 years in the U.S. Army while his mom showed him what it takes to be a Hall of Fame center.

“What other mom plays tackle football in the front yard with her sons?” Mawae said. “She hit hard.”

The former NFL center played for three teams over the course of his 16-year career in the Seattle Seahawks (1994-97), New York Jets (1998-2005) and Tennessee Titans (2006-2009).

Mawae was an eight-time Pro Bowler and was a First-team All-Pro seven times.

Most of those accolades came as a Jet under then-head coach Herm Edwards where he blocked for Hall of Fame running back Curtis Martin, who are now teammates once again — this time in Canton.

In Mawae’s final season, he helped lead the way to Chris Johnson’s 2,006 rushing yards with the Titans in 2009.

After being an assistant offensive line coach for the Chicago Bears in 2016, the new Hall of Fame inductee joined Edwards’ staff in March of 2018.

Pro Football Hall of Fame 2019: Why Jets’ Kevin Mawae included this surprising coach on the list of thank yous

Kevin Mawae thanked all the people you would expect – his parents, coaches, teammates – as he was enshrined in the Pro Football Hall of Fame on Saturday night.
But there was one notable addition to that list: Patriots head coach Bill Belichick.

Though they overlapped for two seasons in New York from 1998-99, Mawae never played directly for Belichick – one played on the offensive side of the ball, one coached on the defensive side. And the two weres fierce rivals from 2000-05, once Belichick landed with the Patriots.
But the former Jets center felt it necessary to give Belichick a tip of the hat anyway.

Why? Here’s what Mawae had to say about Belichick during his speech in Canton, Ohio:

Though I played against many opponents who challenged me to be my very best — many of whom are here tonight — there’s one coach in particular who I must recognize: coach Bill Belichick. I see all the Jets and the Patriots [in the crowd], and there’s a delineation right there. Coach Bill Belichick, I never felt more challenged mentally in a game than when I faced your teams. I came to love the puzzle of figuring out your defense and the chess match those games became. I didn’t win all of them. In fact, my teams lost most of them. I think we were 4-13 against you. That sucked. That was awful. I still hate the Patriots [laughing]. Everybody hates the winners. But holding your defense to zero sacks or having big rushing games came with a great sense of accomplishment. Congratulations to you on all your successes, and thank you for making me a better player.

ASU coach Kevin Mawae details Camp T return, HOF experience

Arizona State football offensive analyst Kevin Mawae kept making headlines after his big Hall of Fame induction weekend, as he returned to ASU’s Camp Tontozona east of Payson wearing his gold jacket.
“It was a great moment,” he told 98.7 FM Arizona’s Sports Station’s Doug & Wolf on Wednesday. “It was great for me to see our guys, our players come up and be joyful for you and love upon you.”
“I just wanted to share a message with the players,” he said. “I watched it on Twitter last night and I was like ‘God, that was a pretty good message.’ I was just talking. I had an idea of what I wanted to say. But it came out a whole lot better than I thought it would.”
He said if he were the kids listening to him, he’d be floored.

“If I would have put myself in those shoes, I would have had my jaw dropped,” Mawae said.

“I hope for our players that that meant something to them. My message to them is ‘Everybody’s got something great about them.’ Our job is to take that greatness, whatever it is, and pull it out so that other people can be great also.”

Despite being one of the greatest offensive linemen of his era, Mawae was just as much of a fan this past weekend as anyone visiting Canton, Ohio would be.

“The lunch is that special because it’s just the Hall of Famers,” Mawae said. “No outsiders. No coaches. But that’s your opportunity to listen to the older guys, the Hall of Famers, to tell you what it means for them to be a Hall of Famer.”
The lunch was one of the highlights of Mawae’s weekend, which for him was hard to process.

“The only way we could describe it, it’s the Super Bowl for just me,” he said. “The Hall of Fame is about a five-day event, but it’s especially for just one individual. There’s eight of us, but it’s the Super Bowl weekend for just me and celebrating my career. And that’s what’s really amazing.

“The highlight of the week for me was getting my gold jacket on Friday night. If anyone ever goes to the Hall of Fame, that’s the event you don’t want to miss: the gold jacket ceremony.”

But while players usually go on and on about the induction ceremony or jacket presentation, Mawae couldn’t stop raving about the lunch.

“You go in the room, and you’re told when you go there that your job is not to speak,” he said. “So you just kind of stand in the room and it’s like being a rookie all over again in that you go in the room, and you don’t sit down until everyone else is seated, because you don’t want to sit in someone else’s space. I walk in the room and I look across the room and I see Larry Csonka, Floyd Little. I see Bob Lilly, other guys.

I walk in the room and I look across the room and I see Larry Csonka, Floyd Little. I see Bob Lilly, other guys.

“Every football hero you can think of is in that room.”

Mawae said his nerves around the legends got to him, leading to a former colleague to scoop him up and calm him down.

“I’m afraid to go sit down somewhere,” he said. “And then Mike Munchack, whom I played for, he came up to me and said ‘Hey, won’t you come over here and sit with me and Bruce Matthews.’ And then I’m sitting right next to Ron Wolf, legendary GM. Joe DeLamielleure is sitting on the other side of me.”

But one guy in the room still had Mawae giddy.

“And then the guy across from me talking, he’s got a deep southern accent, and I’m trying to figure out who he is. I had never met the guy before, and I catch his name is John,” he said. “And I started thinking about it and I said, ‘That’s John Hannah. That’s John Hannah! That’s the greatest offensive lineman to ever play for the Patriots! That’s one of the greatest guards to ever play the game!’

Mawae simply could not believe the volume, level of stardom and stories being shared in the room.

“Ron Wolf [former Packers GM] is telling stories about acquiring this player and trading this guy and I just sat there amazed and in awe. I didn’t say anything unless someone asked me a question,” Mawae said.
