2005 OUTLOOK
One of the most exciting players in college football who will return for his final season in a Tiger uniform with the chance to become one of the most prolific players in NCAA history ... A true testament to the term student-athlete, he received his bachelor's degree in business administration in May of 2005, and will be taking graduate level courses in 2005-06 ... Is the NCAA's active career leader in total offense, with his 9,483 yards of total offense entering his senior season ... Next most behind him is senior QB Steven Jyles of Louisiana-Monroe, with 7,563 yards ... Ranks 2nd in the NCAA active career leaders in TDs responsible for, with 73, and trails only senior QB and 2004 Heisman Trophy winner Matt Leinart of USC (75) ... Can tie an NCAA total offense record if he gains 3,000 yards this season, then he will join five others (Ty Detmer of BYU; Chad Pennington of Marshall; Tim Rattay of Louisiana Tech; Kliff Kingsbury of Texas Tech and Timmy Chang of Hawaii) as the only players in Division I-A history to have 3 years of 3,000 yards or more in total offense ... With just 2,500 yards of offense, will become only the 3rd player in D-I history to have 4 years of 2,500 yards of total offense (Antwaan Randle El of Indiana; Timmy Chang of Hawaii) ... Needs just 12 yards rushing to reach 3,000 for his career, and that would make him only the 5th player in NCAA D-I history to have 3,000 yards passing and rushing ... Also needs just 505 passing yards and 512 rushing yards to become only the 3rd player in NCAA D-I history to throw for 7,000 yards and rush for 3,500 yards (Antwaan Randle El of Indiana; Joshua Cribbs of Kent State) ... Needs just 22 points scored to reach 200 for his career, which would make him only the 4th player in NCAA D-I history to throw for 200 points and score 200 points in a career (Rick Leach of Michigan; Antwaan Randle El of Indiana; Joshua Cribbs of Kent State) ... Stands 907 rushing yards shy of Antwaan Randle El's NCAA D-I career rushing record for QBs (3,895) ... Enters the 2005 season ranked 10th alltime in rushing yards for a QB, with 2,988 yards ... Also begins 2005 ranked 53rd in NCAA D-I history in total offense (9,483 yards), and if he reached his three-year average of 3,161 in 2005, he'd end up with 12,644 yards, which would put him 5th alltime ... Needs 2,781 yards of total offense to break the Big 12 record of 12,263 by Texas Tech's Kliff Kingsbury (1999-2002) ... Also needs just 447 rushing yards to break the Big 12 QB rushing record of 3,434 by Nebraska's Eric Crouch (1998-2001) ... After just three seasons, has already broken the MU career records for total offense, and passing TDs (43), and needs just 464 passing yards to break passing record of 6,959 held by Jeff Handy (1991-94) and just 211 rushing yards to break rushing record of 3,198 by Zack Abron (2000-03).
