BuzzerBeater Forums

jfarb and SpF commissioned me to work on this last season. First, I must apologize for how long this has taken. Compiling the information and deciding how to proceed has been a long process. We hope that this will give USA users a better picture of the history of the USA NT and the players that paved the way for the success of current and future National Teams.

Rules
1. In order to qualify for the USA NT Hall of Fame, a player must have:
a) played in at least 28 games for the USA National Team
b) been retired from NT play for at least one full season

2. No more than two players can be elected to the USA NT Hall of Fame in one election.

3. Elections will take place at the beginning of each season with voting taking place on the offsite forum. At this time, we expect to elect 2 players each season. In the future, the voting process may change to keep the Hall of Fame exclusive to only the best in USNT history.

4. Criteria for Hall of Fame selection is, at this time, left up to the voters.

Other Information

- The post following this will provide a summary of each eligible player's qualifications for the Hall of Fame. Please look through the information (also on the offsite) before heading to the offsite forum to place your vote.
- Former NT managers may request a special exception to add a player who does not meet the requirements to the ballot.
- As we refine this process, there will very likely be additional changes.

This criteria sucks if it excludes Dirk Trujillo and his 22 NT appearances.

EDIT: Didn't see this part:

- Former NT managers may request a special exception to add a player who does not meet the requirements to the ballot.

Consider this my request.

What if a former NT manager specifically requests a certain player NOT be listed?

any chance Ismael Grubbs becomes the Brett Favre of BB?

Last I asked him, he didn't think he was retired for the NT and was looking forward to getting his 100th competitive cap.

I hope you have your Career Extension trainer.
