SVB, Griffin, and Panozzo elected to 2024 Class of the BCA Hall of Fame

it could have also been that two people didn’t return their ballots by the deadline, which was Friday.
 
It was discussed in the APA / Billiards Digest Live. Panozzo explained it as a couple people that just kind of rationalize in their heads specific players they feel are overlooked and want to see get in first. So when they cast their ballots they only vote for them as a testament of their belief in the merits of their pet player even if doing so ends up a bit of a symbolic gesture for them. I also think when you have 50 people voting, even 50 curated experts, the bell curve still wants to assert itself and you’re likely to get one or two people thinking outside the status quo.
 
Mark Griffin was really a great friend
I miss him,pool owes a lot to people like him

Not only championship players but grass roots supporters deserve recognition

congrats to all these guys
 
Mark G should have been in 10 years ago. This rights a wrong. It's a shame we had to lose him to honor the man. Nevertheless all inductees are well deserving.

Yes, Mark should have been in years ago.

It is a shame the voters can't GTST until someone has passed. I know Mark would have been tickled to receive the honor, well deserved a long time ago.
