Waterloo native and two-time winning Super Bowl coach Tom Coughlin could be headed to Pro Football Hall of Fame.

The semifinalists were announced yesterday, and they include 31 players and 29 coaches or contributors. None of the 31 players appears to be a lock for induction.

Coughlin led the New York Giants to Super Bowl victories after the 2007 and 2011 seasons.

A decision on the one coach or contributor to be inducted will be announced later in August.
