that concept. The HOF is for those who are students and play a sport. I personally hope it is never only about athletics. They would not be on the team if they weren't students and if they quit being students they will be removed from the team, therefore forfeiting any chance to be qualified to be inducted.

I personally can't separate the two and in my mind you post does exactly that.

JM knew the rules and made his choice. I am super excited that he re-evaluated and decided to follow the rules. He belongs in the hall of fame when he has accomplished what others had to do.
