Announcement for the Contributor finalist 1pm tomorrow

Interesting ... a delay

[rewing84]

perhaps its not kraft but someone deceased

perhaps its not kraft but someone deceased

maybe looking for family to comment and/or celebrate? Would be welcome news...just a personal preference
but would like any of the deceased people on list over Kraft... wouldn't hurt to make him wait
a year (or two) more ... if choice is someone passed away means the queue broken, aside from Coryell the rest of
final 4 were living... interesting thought.

if thats the case its down: to Kilroy Parker Reeves Schottenheimer Shaughnessy Wells

Last year's First out
Roone Arledge-Deceased
Art Modell-Deceased
Mike Shanahan
Art Rooney Jr.

Last year's final 8 (ties)
Coryell-Deceased/Elected
Holmgren
Kilroy-Deceased
Kraft
Parker-Deceased
Reeves-Deceased
Shaughnessy-Deceased
Wooten

Last year's Final 4 (tie)
Coryell-Deceased/Elected
Holmgren
Kraft
Wooten

so----if it is someone who passed away and also hard to find relatives...going on the speculation...
Kilroy-Deceased
Parker-Deceased
Shaughnessy-Deceased

all were in the final 6 (8 because of ties) last year, but also is the queue really all that helpful? With seniors those voters
took a top 6 guy out of the top 12...

Kilroy and Parker were finalists for the Hall’s special Centennial Class of 2020 but there were no many
voters from the coach/contributor committee on the Blue Ribbon panel.

Throw a dart?

Anyway, we'll find out the reason for the delay---if not tomorrow then soon, I bet

YES !!

A great day for Parker, Lions, Steelers, fans ... He is in Richard!

About time these voters recognized past greats since the Centennial Class. A great start to the Class Of 2024. The only other coaches I believe deserve enshrinement from the those years are Clark Shaughnessy and Buck Shaw ... good call Robert
