Which players from the Saban Era do you think make the CFB Hall of Fame?

Remember the two major requirements:
1. A player must have received major first team All-America recognition.
2. Football achievements are considered first, but the post-football record as a citizen is also weighed.
So guys like Julio Jones (2nd Team All-American) and Terrence Cody (jail time over animal neglect) are likely out.
I believe some of the major ones are as follows:
- Mark Ingram
- Barrett Jones
- AJ McCarron
- Derrick Henry
- Minkah Fitzpatrick
- Tua Tagovailoa
- DeVonta Smith
- Bryce Young
- Will Anderson

Barrett Jones by a mile. He’s one of the most decorated college lineman ever. I’d wager he is the first.

I would wager the same thing. I think he and DeVonta Smith are 100% locks at this point just due to how decorated both players are.

Maybe a long shot, but Mark Barron may have a good chance.

All of the Heisman winners will make it.

Mac Jones was:
Consensus All American
Davey O Brian Award
Johnny U Award
Manning Award
3rd in the Heisman, 1st Rd draft pick, getting rave reviews
with New England
I personally think he was the best QB at Alabama since 1961

Its harder to get in than you might think.
LOCKS
- AJ
- Tua
- Amari
- Barret
- Will Anderson
- Minkah
- Mosely
- Ingram
- Henry
- Devonta
- Bryce
POSSIBLE
- Andre Smith
- Barron
- Trent
- Jonah
- Jeudy
- Ragland
- Jonathan Allen
- Najee
- Leatherwood
DISQUALIFIED
- Rolando
- Cody
The possible category is really hard to sort. There are probably a fifteen more guys you could credibly add to that category. My general requirements were to check most of the following boxes: unanimous or close to unanimous 1st team AA, multi-time 1st team All-SEC, positional award, significant player on a championship team, other impressive achievement (e.g. SEC DPOY, heisman finalist, SEC record holder).

If Orlando McCain can avoid getting Rolando McClain's criminal transgressions tied to him, he's got a shot.

Thanks Vern!
Rolando was such a great player, it is such a shame that he couldn't stay out of trouble! I think if he had, he would have had a HOF career in NFL.
