""I'm not going to disclose that," Dungy said. "When you come on the committee, you take an oath that you're not going to discuss any of the debates, anything that happened there. I'm not going to put any of my teammates under the bus, who they voted for, who I voted for." "Here's the situation. In this category, coaches, contributors, senior players, there are five finalists."
""But, here's the problem. We voted for three people, there are two other slots available. Bill Belichick definitely deserves to be in the Hall of Fame, Robert Kraft definitely deserves to be in the Hall of Fame, L.C. Greenwood definitely deserves to be in the Hall of Fame. Ken Anderson deserves to be in the Hall of Fame, and we've got two slots.""
Tony Dungy declined to reveal whether he voted for Bill Belichick, citing an oath not to disclose committee debates or individual votes. Dungy described the committee process in the coaches, contributors and senior players category, noting five finalists and that Roger Craig received the most votes from their group. Dungy stated that Belichick, Robert Kraft, L.C. Greenwood and Ken Anderson all deserve Hall of Fame recognition but that only two slots were available. Dungy attributed the outcome to a recent voting-rule change and said prior rules would have produced a different result. Rodney Harrison criticized the committee decision as wrong.
