I actually had Duke Slater https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Duke_Slater as my next senior, but I have no problem with Easley - just hope all the seniors don't start coming from the 80s or even 90s.
Unfortunately they will start coming from the 80s and 90s. The voters know no better at this point.

There's a logjam of players from the 20s-60s that deserve to be in before Easley and other "newer" players. Too bad they just reduced the number of senior committee candidates they will consider as this will make it even less likely that the old, old timers will be considered.
