You may find an interesting history of the USFL in Jim Byrne's book "The $1 League: The Rise And Fall Of The USFL." It is out of print, but your library or inter-library loan should be able to help you.

Why is Hershel Walker not in the Pro Football Hall of Fame?
Herschel Walker is not in the Hall of Fame because his most productive years were in the USFL, not in the NFL. While he played only 3 seasons in the USFL for the New Jersey Generals, he was able to match that productivity only once in his NFL career. His play ing the NFL was good, but not great. Based on his lack of productivity in the NFL, the HOF selection committee never voted to enshrine him into the HOF.
