As I noted in another thread, there are many great players not currently on the All-Time Argonauts banners in the stadium. The team has been adding names fairly sporadically over the past decade -- hopefully if/when we get onto BMO, this will become an annual event.
I thought it would be worth discussing who is not on the list and should be added in the future. My personal feeling is that to be inducted into this club a guy should have played a longish time for the Argos (I say, somewhat arbitrarily, five years) and/or be more closely associated with the Argos than any other franchise. Those criteria would, for instance, rule out Doug Flutie, Matt Dunigan, Damon Allen and (arguably) Don Matthews.
Here are the individuals previously inducted:
#55 Joe Krol
#22 Dick Shatto
#60 Danny Nykoluk
#33 Bill Symons
#10 Terry Greer
#77 Royal Copeland
#79 Jim Corrigall
#67 Ted Morris
#27 Marv Luster
#7 Condredge Holloway
#36 Don Moen
#66 Bill Zock
#88 Paul Masotti
#31 Michael Clemons
#52 Les Ascott
#20 Jim Rountree
#16 Dave Mann
#81 Ulysses Curtis
#69 Dan Ferrone
#68 Jim Stillwagon
#54 Ed Harrington
#77 Rodney Harding
Who would we like to see added to this list in future? My list includes, in roughly chronological order: Leo Cahill, Dick Thornton, Mel Profit, Bob O'Billovich, Carl Brazley, Paul Pearson, Darrell K. Smith, Reggie Pleasant, Kelvin Pruenster, Lance Chomyc, Derrell Mitchell, Noel Prefontaine, Byron Parker, Mike O'Shea and Kevin Eiben.
