4. Mike Hartline

Passing stats: 5,680 yards, 38 TD, 25 INT

Now we’re talkin’!

Hartline’s up-and-down career with the Wildcats ended with a BANG. He threw for 3,178 yards in 2010, along with 23 TDs and 9 INTs. The team would finish 6-7 with a loss to Pitt in the BBVA Compass Bowl, but it was certainly a season to remember for Hartline.

A mostly average QB, especially in terms of overall accuracy, Hartline surprised everyone, completing 66.2% of his passes in 2010. He had some ridiculous games, including back-to-back 300-yard, 4-TD performances against Georgia and South Carolina.

Hartline found a way to pass for 200+ yards in every single game that season, and his consistency helped him get NFL looks with the Indianapolis Colts and New England Patriots. Currently, the UK legend is an assistant coach with Charlotte.
