    Yes. Winning 70 some odd percent of your games and a nc means you're in

    One of the few times I'll disagree with Groves.

    No, that isn't enough, IMO.

    And it's no slight on Fulmer, at least intentionally, I just don't think it's enough.....especially considering the way the last 5 or so years of his tenure went.

    I'd say it probably shouldnt' be enough, but considering others currently in teh HOF i'd say it's enough.

    To beat out Florida all of those years, and Georgia in a few of them is no small feat, imo.

    When you consider Fulmer, you have to consider that people with equal or lesser resumes are in the Hall of Fame. He was not an outstanding coach, but the majority of his 17 years were good, outside of 05, and 08. Some would consider 02 as a down year as well, but other than that, certainly a solid career.

    Conference titles should be all that matter in a HOF resume imo.

    This is why he's in. As droski pointed out, some fairly mediocre coaches are in due to having one or two phenomenal years surrounded by merely "good" years.
