The other members of the Class of 2018 include Harold Carmichael (Southern), Raymond Chester (Morgan State), Thomas Henderson (Langston), Leo Lewis (Lincoln), Everson Walls (Grambling State) and Coach Bill Hayes (Winston-Salem State and North Carolina A&T).
Lloyd attended Fort Valley State in Georgia, a Division II school, where he flourished. He was a three-time All-SIAC selection and in his senior season he was named the SIAC Player of the Year.

Lloyd did just that. He was selected by the Steelers in the sixth-round of the 1988 NFL Draft, and played for them for 10 seasons, a total of 11 seasons in the NFL. He was a five-time Pro Bowl selection, and three-time All-Pro, 1993-95. He was voted the Steelers MVP twice (1991, 1994) and was a member of the Steelers All-Time Team that was named as part of the team’s 75th season in 2007.
Lloyd was a menacing force for the Steelers defense, one who never backed down and held up the legacy of the team’s tough linebackers.
