(45 total medals from 27 athletes for 10 different countries)
LINK
Rowdy Gaines- 3 (swimming)
Charles Barkley- 2 (basketball)
Kirsty Coventry (Zimbabwe)- 2 (swimming)
Ruthie Bolton- 2 (basketball)
Mark Gangloff- 2 (swimming)
Cesar Cielo (Brazil)- 1 (swimming)
Harvey Glance- 1 (track)
John Hargis- 1 (swimming)

I expect Arkansas, Florida, Aggies, and LSU to all have good showings in this thread.

You cant count the Special Olympics, so really Auburn has none.
In all seriousness thought UGA has 18 Gold medals
Interesting Fact: Herschel Walker competed in the 92 Olympics on the USA bobsled team
