Nominees are required to have earned a college degree in order to be considered by the LSU Athletics Hall of Fame Election Board. John Brady and J. Perry Cole were inducted in the Coach/Administrator category, and Rheagan Courville Branton, Ronald Dupree, Cornelia Gayden and Temeka Johnson were inducted in the Student-Athlete category.
Rheagan Courville Branton’s name became synonymous with power, precision and passion. A two-time NCAA vault national champion and one of the most decorated gymnasts in LSU history, her legacy still inspires the program today.
