He shouldn't. He was an All Star type player but he didn't do anything in the playoffs. Mike Bibby bailed his ass out a few times. He was a solid player but not a HOF.

5 time all star,not 4


don't forget about 4 assists/game as well. Only one of 5 guys to average 20/9/4 for a career. Bubble HOF, I would say.

His career was most certainly NOT mediocre...was better than that. However, his career was also most certainly NOT HOF either. Really good player. And really good player <> HOF. No chance.

My understanding is UM did not vacate any wins until after the Elite 8 win over OSU, so they can technically claim they made the Final Four that year even though their appearances there were vacated. What I don't understand is how you could get a ruling that doesn't start vacating games until your last two games of the season - that seemed like an arbitrary (and too long delayed) starting point to me since Webber reportedly was taking cash from Martin since 1988 ... I don't see how or why they would stop short of vacating every game he ever played in. The NCAA ruled Ed Martin was a booster of UM, apparently a lot of Rose's arguments against the penalties is based on the premise that Martin was not a booster. I don't know the specifics on how the NCAA defines a booster, but it's dishonest to suggest Martin was a longtime family friend or something like that who was just giving them money like he would give anyone else close to him - Martin clearly would not have befriended those players in the first place if not for their extraordinary basketball talents.
