and if I had to guess, Jim will not go into the booth. Keep in mind that most folks are there to see the retirement ceremony and I am sorry if this takes away from your relative's recognition for being inducted into the BYU HOF.

Recognize them at the Savanna State game. I want ESPN focused on #9!

Gene Frenkle

Wow so they can't even mention their names - I really hope they don't

Fantastic people who deserve recognition. Do it on a night where they will not

This would be an incredible act of selfishness

McMahon warrants special consideration and not all HOF inductees are the same

Get it, there are no rookies on that list.

I have a prescription for you and it is more Cowbell!

How do you know what ESPN will do or say? You must be a ESPN program director

It's a football game, and McMahon was a football player. It should be his night.

Honor the HOF football inductee at the football game, gymnastics at gymnastics

The ironic thing...Jimmy Mac would be the first to disagree with you.

BarraCouga

So how do you know the McMahon family

BYU will honor them all, Jimmy Mac will get some more time and jersey will be

Remember the 1984 team that was "honored" several years ago?

Blue Cougar

Why not just honor athletes at their respective sporting events?

MHOP

Agreed. It'd be weird to have football and basketball players show up at a

Why are you addressing this to the Athletic Dept and posting it here on CB?

I thought those other people were going to be inducted into the athletic Hall
