Tim K Posted September 27, 2020 Share Posted September 27, 2020 2 hours ago, keystone3ply said: Which leads to another serious question. GH was removed from the DCI Hall of Fame on September 26, 2018. With the "misdemeanor" conviction & not the "felony" conviction, would there be any consideration given to him being reinstated to the HOF? I'm sure there would be much outrage & protest from the drums corps community. 1 hour ago, Poppycock said: Yes! Should be reinstated! HOF is based on the criteria of accomplishments to the activity and not on minor misdemeanors or misdeeds. Being in a Hall of Fame is not a right, it’s an honor. So DCI would not have to reinstate him for pleading guilty to a lesser charge than the original charge. People are removed frequently from halls of fame and similar honors for bad behavior. I know of a town that had a beloved football coach in their high school hall of fame who was charged with drunk driving. He was removed immediately. While the accomplishments are the primary reason why a person is nominated, their conduct is part of the criteria as well, and the judge in the case was pretty direct. He abused his power. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
