Regular visitors to notinhalloffame.com know that we are slowly working on the top 50 of every major team in the NHL, NBA, NFL, and MLB. Once that is done, we will examine how each team honors its past players, coaches, and executives. Eventually, we will do the same with the NCAA. As such, we want to highlight that Georgia Tech has announced its nine-person class of 2026.

The ceremony will take place on October 9, with the Class honored the following day at their home game against Duke.

The Class of 2026 inductees are:

Jeremiah Attaochu, Football, 2009-13.  Playing at Linebacker, Attaochu still holds the school record for Sacks with 31.5 and took the Yellow Jackets to four bowl games.  He went on to have a nine-year NFL career playing for the San Diego Chargers, New York Jets, Denver Broncos, Chicago Bears, and Baltimore Ravens.

Harrison Butker, Football, 2013-16.  Butker is Georgia Tech’s all-time leader in Points (337) and has a win in the Orange Bowl.  He currently plays for the Kansas City Chiefs, where he won three Super Bowls.

Matt Gonzalez, Baseball, 2013-16.  Gonzalez was a First Team All-ACC Selection in 2016 who batted .318 with 20 Home Runs over his four years at Georgia Tech.  He was later drafted by the Atlanta Braves in the fourth round.

Danny Hall, Baseball Head Coach, 1994-2025.  Hall led the Yellow Jackets to seven ACC Conference Regular Season Titles, five ACC Tournament Titles, and three College World Series appearances.  A five-time ACC Coach of the Year, Hall was named the Sporting News National Coach of the Year.  He also boasts a stellar 1,244-676-1 record and saw 146 of his players drafted in MLB.

Grover Hinsdale, Track and Field Coach, 1979-2025.  Over his 46 years as a coach, he was a two-time ACC Coach of the Year and coached three Olympic Gold Medalists and 13 NCAA Championships.

Jerome Miller, Men’s Track and Field, 2005-09.  Miller was a two-time All-American in the High Jump, finishing fourth in the outdoor Championships in 2006 and 2009.  He won the ACC indoor title in 2007 and the outdoor title in 2009.

Jillian O’Neill, Women’s Tennis, 2011-12.  An All-American as a single in both her years at Georgia Tech, O’Neill finished the 2012 season ranked at #12.  She had a 54-29 record for the school.

Seth Reeves, Men’s Golf, 2011-14.  Reeves helped Georgia Tech win three ACC Titles (2011, 2013 & 2014) and reach match play at the NCAA Championships those same three years.  He won three tournaments and posted ten top-ten finishes.

Mike Stamus, Communications Staff, 1983-2025. 

Steve Zelnak, Honorary Letterman Recipient

We here at Notinhalloffame.com would like to congratulate the members of the 2026 Georgia Tech Hall of Fame Class.

Yes, we know that this is taking a while!

As many of you know, we at Notinhalloffame.com are slowly generating the top 50 of each major North American sports team. That being said, we maintain and update our existing Top 50 lists annually.  We are pleased to present our pre-2026 revision of our top 50 Dallas Cowboys.

As for all of our top 50 players in football, we look at the following: 

1.  Duration and Impact.

2.  Traditional statistics and how they finished in the National Football League.

3.  Advanced Statistics.

4.  Playoff performance.

5. Their respective legacy on the team.

6. How successful the team was when he was there.

7. Respecting the era in which they played.

Criteria 1-4 will make up the lion’s share of the algorithm.  Please note that we have implemented this for the first time.  This has changed the rankings all throughout the board.

Last year, Dallas had a mediocre 7-9-1 record and failed to make the playoffs.  There were no new additions but two elevations among active players.

As always, we present our top five, but there were no changes.

1. Emmitt Smith
2. Bob Lilly
3. Roger Staubach
4. Randy White
5. Mel Renfro

You can find the complete list here:

Quarterback Dak Prescott, who added his fourth Pro Bowl, went to #22 from #29.

The second elevation was Wide Receiver CeeDee Lamb, who climbed from  #41 to #33.

We thank you for your continued support of our lists on Notinhalloffame.com.

2000 SEMI-FINAL RESULTS:

Thank you for your participation in the Pro Football Hall of Fame Revisited Project. If you are unaware of what that is, we acted like the PFHOF had its first class in January 1946.

We have completed the years up to 1999.

For “2000,” a Preliminary Vote with nearly 100 players whose playing career ended by 1994. We also follow the structure in which players have 20 years of eligibility, and if they do not make it into the Hall, they are relegated to the Senior Pool.

Each voter was asked to select 25 names from the preliminary list, and the top 25 vote-getters were named Semi-Finalists.

A week later, the voters were asked to pick 15 names from the 25 Semi-Finalists, and next week, they will choose five from the remaining 15. We will continue this process every week until we catch up to the current year.

33 votes were cast, with the top 15 advancing.

This is for the “Modern Era”

Last year, the Browns won only five games, yet three players rose into the top 50.

As always, we present our top five, which saw a change at the top tier of the list.

1. Jim Brown
2. Otto Graham
3. Myles Garrett
4. Joe Thomas
5. Lou Groza

You can find the complete list here:

Defensive End Myles Garrett, who was shockingly traded to the Los Angeles Rams in the offseason after winning his second Defensive Player of the Year Award, moved up to #3 from #5.

Offensive Lineman Joel Bitonio edged up two more spots to #14.

The only other change was Cornerback Denzel Ward, who vaulted ten spots to #36.
