Green Gang: The Great Hall Of Fame Debate

Who's your favorite for football Hall Of Fame induction?

My contention has been that at some point, Scott Hall should be in the HOF some day. Some say, "No, he wasn't that big of a factor for his teams because of how few stats he had". I say, if Scott Davis, who's teams never won a conference championship is qualified, then Hall certainly is because of his command presence, leadership on the field and his all out toughness.

Hash it out tomorrow.

You know the reason Scott Hall should be in the HOF? Well he is also part of the reason I came here. Dude went to my HS. The cheerleading coach, who taught the biology class I was in, had a UNT sticker on her desk. I asked about it, cuz I had never heard of it, she explained that Scott Hall played football there.

That aint the reason I came here, but it raised my awareness a little.

And we all know the good things that I have done since I have been a student here, right?

That's the first time I've taken a good look at our HOF.

Scott Hall has just about every angle covered to get in:

longevity? check

value to the team? check

winning? check

3 bowls (4?)? check

If you go on college performance alone (and not pro career), I might argue he should have been given priority over Kassell and any other members of the 2001 - 2004 squads with the exception of Booger. He was, after all, a DCTF POY and wasn't he on the cover (not that it should be the sole reason...)?

Did anyone remember Jalie Mitchell as a double sport HOF? Crazy, but I don't remember her on the grid iron.

      Minnesota

      Game reminds me of the Wisconsin NIT matchup. Bunch of big slow white dudes.

      Army is a good team

      You seem to have a lot of conviction when you say that. Have you seen this group play? Have you seen the coaching? Have you seen how we keep beating ourselves? Like I mentioned in another post, we are not a team to look at a schedule and pencil in wins. We’re not that good. Army has beaten bottom half programs they’ve faced. They beat another one yesterday.

      McGill scored in the 2nd Quarter.

      I’ve thought a lot about how different the game would have been had that not happened. We’re all pissed that we couldn’t score there, but we really did. Add to that the PI call and the fumble that was called an incomplete pass and it’s actually kind of shocking that we still could have won the game. The TD not being given to us is even more frustrating if you saw the TD that Bama was given. Instant replay really sucks sometimes. What’s the point if you can’t get it right?

      McGill scored in the 2nd Quarter.

      It was hard to tell live from my position in the stands if McGill got the touchdown. The replay shown in the stadium wasn't conclusive. Hank asked Morris about it on the postgame radio show. Morris said 'that even on the tape on the sideline' it looked like McGill scored. From watching an ESPN highlight clip after the game it looked like he scored to me. I think you're referring to the fumble that was overturned by replay. It was so close. The DPI call on Nelson earlier in that drive made me absolutely nuts. Chandler's INTs were crushing. There was a mass exodus of people with green shirts on after the first pick. A bubble bursting type of moment.
