To find the correct answer to this question, we need to understand the context of the "three governors controversy" and identify which governor preceded it.

The "three governors controversy" refers to a legal and political dispute that occurred in the U.S. state of Georgia in 1946. The controversy arose when the incumbent governor, Eugene Talmadge, died before taking office for his fourth term. This situation led to a question about who should succeed him as governor.

Based on this information, we can determine that the governor who died prior to the three governors controversy was Eugene Talmadge (option C). Therefore, option C is the correct answer to the question.
