With this Cal talk about the Hall of Fame, who are some current SEC fooball coaches bound for the Hall of Fame in Atlanta?
Nick Saban
Steve Spurrier
Les Miles
Mark Richt
The first three are likely locks with their win totals and national titles. Richt will need more wins or a title. But could get a invite on "good works" like Gene Stallings did.

2 of those don't belong.

Definitely the first three.
I fully expect Richt will end up there as well.

GUS Malzahn is already in a hall of fame.

or 
Not a chance.. Unless he wins a title before retiring. Plus, he has a losing record vs ranked teams.

This is essentially correct. The first three are already in, Richt probably will be

Richt should be a shoo-in.
Terry Donahue is in and his stats are putrid compared to Richt. very mediocre WP of .635 compared to Richt's .739.
Also, despite coaching 6 years more than Richt, Donahue has only won 8 more games than MR.
Actually there are a lot of coaches in the HF that don't measure up to MR and I'm no MR fan.

I think your list is spot on knowing what we know today
Eta: here's a list of SEC coaches records after their 9th season at their respective program.

Top two, locks.
Miles, a few more wins needed.
Richt, no way.

The barometer to make the CFB HOF as a coach is really low. Richt is a 100% lock and Pinkel has a very good shot at making it. Bielema is also well on his way. He just needs to coach for a few more years.

Coach A: 123-47-2, .721 winning pct, 4 conference championships, 3-8 bowl record, 0-4 major bowl games
Coach B: 122-40, .753 winning pct, 5 conference championships (3 shared), 6-7 bowl record, 2-3 major bowl games
Coach C: 136-48, .739 winning pct, 2 conference championships, 9-5 bowl record, 2-1 major bowl games
Coach D: 152-52, .742 winning pct, 2 conference championships, 8-7 bowl record, 1-2 major bowl games
One coach is still coaching, the other three are in the HOF. I'll let you figure out who the coaches are.

Pinkel is another in the same boat as Richt. I could see both getting in.

And that's one of the largest travesties in college football.
Coach was one of the best men to ever coach the game. He got a bad rap at Army because he couldn't beat Navy who just happened to have a guy named Staubach QBing for them when Coach was at Army.
Then he came to SC, won our first and only conference championship in '69 .... but he did a lot more for us that will forever go unrewarded by most. He set us on a plan to one day become a member of the SEC. He did more for us back then, in the late 60s and early 70s, than any other coach we ever had.

As usual, Rooster is spot on.
