Believing in the Sufiism is not a condition of being Sunni

someone could describe themselves as Hanafi, non-Deobandi, non-Sufi, and still be Sunni

I have met hanafis who are non-deo, non barlawi, and non-sufi, but they are not ANTI-sufi - I have yet to find a person who is hanafi and ANTI-sufi. Following a particular tarriqa is no more fard then becoming a hafidh or a muhadith, so there is no real problem with being a hanafi and not having a tarriqa.
