Either currently in ineligible or someone who has waited far too long? I guess I'll start with Alan Faneca.

Bo Jackson should be in every sports hall of fame there is

Kevin Greene should be and will be eventually (oh, and he was a walk on)

Question for Bama fans: Are you at all upset that Cornelius Bennett isn't in yet?

In surprised that Auburn only has 1.

I'm also surprised that Namath is in but Stabler is out. They're both unqualified, but I would have chosen Stabler over Namath.

As it is a Pro football HOF and not an NFL hall of fame, Herschel without a doubt should be in Canton.

Wait, Herschel isn't in the HOF? Damn, I just always assumed he was.

No sir. Being in the USFL really may have cost him valuable chances in the NFL during his best years. Here is a good link about it...

Conerly would've for sure gotten in if it was not for a heroic comeback by Johnny Unitas and the colts in the 58 championship, conerly had already been decided to be the MVP before the game was over with, but Unitas lead a comeback.

Speaking of Ole Miss, I was thinking about a sub thread about players that kept screwing up their chances at the Hof starring Eli Manning.

I am still trying to figure out how Derrick Thomas is in the pro football hall of fame and not the college football hall of fame. The numbers he put up at Alabama are staggering and will never be matched by another Bama player ever.

I wasn't aware that he is responsible for having the worst offensive line in the league.

Whether he deserves it or not, If Eli retired now he will be a hall of famer.

That's a crime that Walker isn't in. Like you said. It is the PRO FOOTBALL Hall of Fame.

There has never been a 2x superbowl MVP qb to miss out on the hall of fame.
