Nov 01, 2016
Published in
Not in Hall of Fame News
It is official.
Ray Allen, via the Player’s Tribune has officially announced his retirement from the National Basketball Association after flirtations of a comeback with top title contenders, the Cleveland Cavaliers and the Golden State Warriors. Allen last played in 2014, where he played with the Miami Heat.
Allen is a ten time NBA All Star who has two NBA Championships, with the Boston Celtics in 2008 and with Miami in 2013. He currently holds the all time NBA record for successful Three Pointers made. He also had successful runs with the Milwaukee Bucks and Seattle SuperSonics.
Allen will be eligible for the Basketball Hall of Fame in 2019 and is a strong contender to enter on the first ballot.

Andre Johnson Retires
Oct 31, 2016

Not in Hall of Fame News
This must the week for former star Houston Texans to abruptly retire.
Fresh off Running Back Arian Foster’s retirement, Wide Receiver, Andre Johnson has decided to call it a career too.
Drafted 3rd overall in 2003 from the University of Miami, Andre Johnson would not waste time establishing himself as a premiere wide out in the NFL. Johnson would have over 1,000 Yards in his second season and would rattle off six more years where he would hit that plateau again. In 2008 and 2009 he would be considered amongst the elite in his profession, leading everyone in Receiving Yards and earning First Team All Pro honors. He would be chosen for the Pro Bowl seven times.
Finishing his career last year with Indianapolis and this year for eight games with Tennessee, Andre Johnson retires with 1,052 Receptions, 14,185 Yards with 70 Touchdowns. He is currently ninth all time in Receptions and tenth all time in Receiving Yards.
Unlike Arian Foster, Johnson has a decent shot for Pro Football Hall of Fame consideration, and will be eligible in 2022. At present, the Texans do not have a Ring of Honor/Hall of Fame but wouldn’t Johnson be a good fit (along with Foster) to start one?
Shortly we have the Football Futures updated and both Arian Foster and Andre Johnson will be on it.
We here at Notinhalloffame.com would like to congratulate Andre Johnson on a wonderful career and wish him the best in his post gridiron activities.

Awards = HOF? Part Twenty-Two: The Conn Smythe Trophy
Oct 28, 2016

From the Desk of the Chairman
We here at Notinhalloffame.com thought it would be fun to take a look at the major awards in North American team sports and see how it translates into Hall of Fame potential.
Needless to say, different awards in different sports yield hall of fame potential. In basketball, the team sport with the least amount of players on a roster, the dividend for greatness much higher. In baseball, it is not as much as a great individual season does not have the same impact.

Dick Butkus to become the inaugural inductee to the Illini HOF
Oct 28, 2016

Not in Hall of Fame News
Regular visitors to Notinhalloffame.com know that we are methodically working on our Top 50 players of all time for each major North American Franchise. Eventually, this will lead to how each team recognizes their past players/executives in respective Halls of Fame, Retired Numbers, Rings of Honor, etc…
What will we eventually get to is the major Universities and their respective Halls of Fame.
As such, it is news to us that the University of Illinois has finally decided to have an Athletic Hall of Fame and that former defensive football standout, Dick Butkus, will be the inaugural inductee.
Born in Chicago, Butkus played for the Fighting Illini from 1962 to 1964 playing both Center and Linebacker. He would become a two time All-American (1963 & 1964) and would win the Knute Rockne Award in both of those years. His other accolades include winning the Big Ten Player f the Year and a sixth place finish in Heisman Trophy balloting.
For his contributions to the College Game, he was inducted into the College Football Hall of Fame in 1983 and the Butkus Award is given annually to the top Linebacker in College. His number was also retired by the University of Illinois.
While Butkus was named the inaugural inductee it was mentioned by the University that there will be more chosen for the first class, however no concrete number was given.
The official ceremony will be on September 29-30, the weekend where the Illini will host the Nebraska Cornhuskers in the Big 10 Home Opener.
