The GSHF was created to "pay tribute and give lasting recognition to those student-athletes, coaches, and teams who have made exceptional contributions, and brought recognition, honor, and distinction to the University of Montana in the field of Intercollegiate Athletics, and who have continued to demonstrate in their lives the values imparted by their experiences."

Defensive linemen Larry Miller (1966-70), a two-time All-American, whose UM football teams went a perfect 10-0 in the regular-season in both 1969 and 1970 was also inducted posthumously.
