I know we beat this to death every year that Eric Dickerson gets snubbed but Zach Thomas before ED?! What a joke.

Interesting how it has clawed its way through time into a form of relevancy....in my book, it remains irrelevant until ED is in. Kinda like the baseball HOF, where some writers conspire to make sure there is never a first-ballot unanimous selection.
Fallible humans, one and all. (inclusive to this poster)

The joke is, if they are keeping ED out due to questions of illegal recruiting and benefits but put in Ricky Williams with his transgressions, then forget about any fairness in the selections.

Bosworth's steroid problem does not seem to bother HOF

Tressell is actually still serving a lifetime NCAA Ban -although he can reapply for reinstatement. Unbelievable

On top of that ... Tressel is a school President ... Youngstown State ... where he won 4 D1AA titles. If we started keeping college or NFL guys out of their respective HOF for roids or others chemical helpers (back in the day), it would be very empty. Although I was not a big "Boz" fan ... he was a beast. ED should be in ... he was good enough for the NFL HOF but not college yet ... yea right. I think two reasons ... yes the DP connection, and splitting time/carries with CJ IMO.

The article mentions that schools must nominate players. Is SMU still nominating ED?

Ummm, forget steroids, the Boz once committed to SMU....you know, back in the day when we were an out-of-control program that actually paid our players.
So let me get this straight, Boz turns down SMU $$$ so he can play at OU for free??????.....riiight

I don't think the NCAA runs the College Hall of Fame. Its run by the National Football Foundation. If the NCAA ran it I doubt Tressell could get in.
