"Former athletes, coaches, administrators and teams are eligible for the hall 10 years after leaving the university."

The hall was founded in 1992. Finley coached at Oregon until 1998. Why did it take Oregon almost 20-years then to induct him?  The Oregon native was inducted into the Oregon Sports Hall of Fame in 1982!

Somehow a PLAYER(Brooks as an example) is inducted as soon as he is eligible but a COACH(Finley) for nearly 30-years is "forgotten." What all of a sudden makes him worthy of induction(his death?) that apparently was not worthy enough previously? It is a GREAT honor but the university messed up on this one as it would have been nice to have the induction while he was still alive.
