There are no specific criteria or qualifications for entering the Ring of Honor although generally speaking the player should be a good representative of the Colts both on and off the field.
But it really boils down to this...if the owner(s) wants a player in the Ring of Honor...the player will be in the Ring of Honor.
As I mentioned before, many viewed Ryan Kelly as one of the better Centers during his playing days.
And he was recognized for off the field endeavors as well - being named a Finalist for the Alan Page community award.
If Jim were still alive, I am pretty sure that he would be put into the Ring of Honor because Jim was fond of him. Will his daughters feel the same? I don't know.
