(S25) - PT 1 - Opening Statements

[PMoney]

Player Progression team, I would like to present my opening arguments for the controversial case that Jayce Tuck should be in the Hall of Fame. While the user behind Tuck may be one of the users the league wishes to forget existed, this is not the user Hall of Fame. We have a separate process for the great users and the Hall should be for great players, which Tuck certainly was. There are claims of TPE manipulation considering his sensitive position in the league, but this is opening statement is based on facts rather than one on probabilities.

Jayce Tuck has 5 Ultimus championships, 2 MVPs, 2 DPotY, holds the annual sack record and is number 4 on the all-time sack list. Any one of these accomplishments would put him as at least a candidate for the Hall. 5 Ultimus Championships is an achievement that may never be matched again in the league. Only 4 other players have multiple MVPs in the league and all of them are either in the hall or locks when they become eligible. Franklin Armstrong will be in the Hall as soon as possible as one of the GOATs in the league’s history. However, he trades off 1 more MVP for 2 Ultimus wins for Tuck. If his numbers compare to one of the greatest in the league, and he is undoubtedly one of the best DL players of all time, how has he not made the hall?
