I guess you have to recall that for a long time, and even now, baseball players go straight to minor league and sometimes the bigs. College has not always been a route they take, and is still not the only route and likely not the majority route. |

Bo didn?t play long enough. Palmiero would be in if not for the roids. Tim Hudson is borderline, but probably won?t make it. Vandy has a few active guys who are tracking to get in. Still hard to believe that LSU, MSU and UF have been so good for so long but haven?t produced a HOFer.

I can't believe how low the vote count % was for some of the all-time greats. Joe DiMaggio only got 88 % of the votes when he made it.
