- Induction:
- 2024
- Class:
- 1919
Playing under legendary coach Glenn "Pop" Warner at Pitt, McLaren was a hard-charging fullback who was never thrown for a loss in four varsity seasons. His 91-yard touchdown run against Syracuse in 1917 stood as the Pitt record for 100 years. McLaren was twice selected a first team All-American (1917-18), earning consensus status in 1918. Pitt went a combined 30-1 during his career, including three undefeated seasons (1915-17). His 1916 and 1918 squads were unanimously selected national champions. McLaren was inducted into the College Football Hall of Fame in 1965.
