Brady Quinn was born on October 27, 1984 in Dublin,
Ohio. Standing at 6 feet 4 inches and weighing in at 227 pounds Quinn
is the perfect size for an NFL quarterback. And not only has he
garnered a lot of attention on the field for his performance, but
people have taken notice of his good looks off the field as well.
Quinn
did not have a stellar high school football career at Dublin Coffman
High School, but with that being said he did enough to set himself
apart from the rest of the competition. In addition to earning a letter
in football, Brady Quinn also excelled on the baseball field. In fact,
he was all conference during his junior year and helped to lead his
team to the state championship as a senior. But somehow, Quinn slipped
under the radar of many college football teams in the country.
During
the fall of 2002, Tyrone Willingham (former Notre Dame Football coach)
became aware of Quinn and in turn offered him a full scholarship. This
was all the opportunity that he needed in order to prove himself. The
2005 season was Quinn's coming out party. He threw for nearly 4,000
yards and finished the season with 32 touchdowns and only 7
interceptions.
Quinn also had a great year in 2006 by leading his
team to the Sugar bowl by throwing for 3,427 yards and 37 touchdowns.
He currently holds the record for most attempts, completions,
touchdowns, and yards by a quarterback at Notre Dame.
Brady Quinn
received a degree in Finance in the spring of 2007. Although he did
receive his degree, Quinn is expected to be a top pick in the 2007 NFL
Draft. So for now, he will be playing football as his chosen career
path.
