Hall of Honor By-laws

Qualifications for Membership in the Hall of Honor
Membership in the Hall of Honor is open to those individuals who have made significant contributions to the University’s athletics programs, either through their participation in athletics as undergraduates or their subsequent association with athletics at OU and their achievements and accomplishments in athletics after leaving OU.

Student-Athletes will be eligible for nomination and selection five years after the end of their athletics participation, except in cases of posthumous induction. 
All student-athletes that already appear on the ballot will be grandfathered in, but once removed, will have to adhere to the most recent guidelines set up by the committee.
