Jul 03, 2024
Written by Committee Chairman 
The problem with running a Hall of Fame-related website is that many of the big ones we cover all have announcements within months of each other. The backbone of what we do is list-related, resulting in a long push to revise what we already have, specifically now with our Football Hockey and Basketball Lists. At present, we have a minor update as we have completed the next ten of the 2024 Basketball List, which you can comment on and vote on: The new 111 to 120: 111. Kevin Porter112. Jeff Malone113.

Written by Committee Chairman 
1962 SEMI-FINAL RESULTS: Thank you for all of your participation in the Pro Football Hall of Fame Revisited Project.

Les Miles sues LSU over vacated wins costing him College Football Hall of Fame omission
Jun 19, 2024
Written by Committee Chairman 
We have some College Football Hall of Fame drama to discuss. For a coach to make the hall, he has to have a winning percentage of .600. Les Miles, who coached LSU from 2005 to 2016, is suing LSU, stating that the school’s decision to vacate 37 wins from 2012-15 removed from Hall of Fame consideration. The vacated wins dropped his winning percentage to .597. The vacated wins occurred when an NCAA investigation uncovered a Level I recruiting violation. Specifically, in 2012, an LSU representative paid a prospective athlete’s father $180,150 over a five-year period. Miles, who led LSU to…
RIP: Willie Mays
Jun 18, 2024
Written by Committee Chairman 
The word legend doesn’t cut it. Willie Mays, one of the greatest baseball players who ever lived, died at the age of 93. Willie Mays played two years with Birmingham of the Negro Leagues before he signed with the New York Giants, and it would not take long before the “Say Hey Kid” became the face of the franchise. Mays could do it all. When they speak of five-tool baseball players, Mays is the literal definition. He had it all. Mays had the power, the speed, the glove, the arm, and the average. There was nothing that he could not do, and that wasn't…
