This isn’t meant to be scientific.
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.

Interview with Former Denver Bronco, Orson Mobley
Oct 31, 2015
Published in
Interviews
To get to the play in the Super Bowl you obviously have the necessary skill to first compete in the National Football League and the luck to be on a competitive team. Former Tight End Orson Mobley not only played in the Super Bowl for the Denver Broncos, he was at the big dance three times.
As a Professional Football player, Mobley caught 84 passes for 1,019 Yards with four Touchdowns and as a member of three AFC Championship Teams he had a pro career to be proud of, though it was he accomplished off of the field long after he retired from the gridiron that he is most proud of.
Mobley would be suspended in 1989 for drug use and would be out of the league the year after and would for years deal with substance abuse issues; a topic he has been open about in interviews, but more importantly with young athletes so that they do not fall into the same pitfalls that befell him when he was young man.

RIP: Mel Daniels

A sad day has happened for basketball fans and more specifically that of the Indiana Pacers as it was announced that 2012 Hall of Fame inductee, Mel Daniels passed away at the age of 71. It is not known at this time how he died, but he did have heart surgery recently.
Daniels starred collegiately for the New Mexico Lobos and was drafted ninth overall in 1967 by the Cincinnati Royals but opted to go to the Minnesota Muskies in the upstart American Basketball Association, where he was also drafted. Daniels was the ABA Rookie of the Year, but business in the Twin Cities was not good and the team moved to Florida and sold the contact to Daniels to the Indiana Pacers.
He would become the rock of a team that would win the ABA Championship in 1970, 1972 and 1973 and would also be named the ABA Most Valuable Player twice. The Center would also lead the league in Rebounds three times. Following the ABA-NBA merger, Daniels would play a season with the New Jersey Nets.
We here at Notinhalloffame.com would like to extend our condolences to the friends and family of Mel Daniels at this time.

The Black College Football Hall of Fame has announced their latest class and we here at Notinhalloffame.com thought it would be fun to take a look at this latest class.
Ken Burrough: Wide Receiver, Texas Southern University: 1966-69.
Burrough would parlay a successful career at Texas Southern into a first round pick by the New Orleans Saints. He would go to the Houston Oilers the year after and stay there for a decade where he would be named to two Pro Bowls. In 1975 he would lead the NFL in Receiving Yards.
Jethro Pugh: Defensive Tackle, Elizabeth City State: 1961-64.
Pugh would be named a two-time All-CIAA Defensive End in college and would go to professionally play for the Dallas Cowboys where he would help the team win two Super Bowls.
Otis Taylor: Wide Receiver, Prairie View A&M: 1961-64.
Taylor would become a star with the Kansas City Chiefs and was a big reason they made it to and won Super Bowl IV. The Wide Receiver would accumulate more than 7,000 Yards as a wide out.
Emmitt Thomas: Cornerback, Bishop College: 1962-65.
Thomas would go on to have a thirteen year career in the National Football League with the Kansas City Chiefs, where he would make five Pro Bowls and win a Super Bowl. He would win two more Super Bowls as a coach.
Aeneas Williams: Cornerback/Free Safety, Southern University: 1989-90.
Aeneas Williams would become a defensive force in the NFL with the Arizona Cardinals making eight Pro Bowls. Williams would become a Pro Football Hall of Famer in 2014.
Lloyd Wells: Contributor.
Wells was a Scout at Texas Southern University and would later become one in the NFL. He would be instrumental in the scouting of traditional black colleges and was somewhat of a pioneer in that field.
The Class of 2016 will be honored at the Enshrinement Ceremony in Atlanta, Georgia on February 27, 2016.
We here at Notinhalloffame.com would like to congratulate the newest class to the Black College Football Hall of Fame and are looking forward to seeing this institution’s progression.
