Hall of Fame
In 1975, King Goff graduated from high school in Caldwell Kansas at the age of 17. Following his graduation, King attended Northeastern Oklahoma A & M College from August of 1975 through December of 1977, playing football for the Golden Norsemen as a tailback until he suffered a career ending injury in September of 1977.
Using lessons he learned both on the field and in the classrooms of NEO, King started an oil and gas well servicing business in 1980 in Blackwell Oklahoma. Success in the oil and gas industry led King to start a petrochemical production company in 1985, and finally a land and cattle ranch in 1997.
Today King Goff and his wife Claudia are active supporters of NEO's student life activities and dedicated fans of the Golden Norsemen in their sponsorship of the Crossland Football Complex.
