Ron Dayne

Ron Dayne became one of the greatest athletes in Wisconsin Badger history during a four-year collegiate career in which he finished as the NCAA's all-time leader in rushing yards with 7,125 including bowl games, led his teams to back-to-back Rose Bowl victories, earned Rose Bowl MVP honors both times, and became one of only eight players in NCAA history to rush for over 1,000 yards in each of his four seasons. His Rose Bowl performances made him the sole representative for the game's 1990s All-Century Class, and he capped his career by leading the nation in rushing yards and rushing touchdowns during the 1999 season before winning the Heisman Trophy, only the second in school history. A three-time All-Big Ten selection and a Consensus All-American, he had his number retired at Camp Randall Stadium in 2007 and was inducted in 2017.
