- 2016 Associated Press All-America (Third Team)
In his first season after transferring from Miami (Fla.), Gadbois earned third team Associated Press All-America and first team All-Southland Conference honors after taking over as the starter at left tackle early in the season. The Lions were 7-1 in games that Gadbois started, as he was an anchor for an offensive line that allowed just 15 sacks all season and cleared the way for 2,240 rushing yards.
