The 2023 class was recently announced. I really like what they did with the Hall of Fame wall right near the entrance of the practice facility.
On another note, how come we don't have any special contributors in the HOF? Michael Poll and John J. Ward should both be in the in the HOF for their many years of service, commitment and promotion of Panther athletics.

My recollection from serving on the Athletic Board a thousand years ago allows for nominations for non-athletes/coaches to be made to the board for consideration. Not sure if they go into the HOF or an off-shoot for recognition, but I believe there have been two or three that were recognized for their contributions. I'd say check with someone on the Athletic Board to see if they know.

Here's a link to info from the athletics website with inductees going back pretty far. mkepanthers.com/sports/2015/5/7/HallOfFame.aspx. There were at least two inductees that I saw who were "special recognition" folks. My sister was inducted in the 90's when I was on the committee. Talk about a conflict of interest! |
