One of the most decorated quarterbacks in Ball State history, Nate Davis rewrote the BSU passing record book and led the Cardinals to their highest-ever national ranking during his career from 2006-08. The MAC Offensive Player of the Year in 2008, Davis quarterbacked the Cardinals to a 12-0 regular season that year and a ranking as high as 12th in the country. He finished eighth in the Heisman Trophy balloting while leading Ball State to a bowl game for the second straight year with an appearance in the GMAC Bowl. He guided the Cardinals to the International Bowl after the 2007 season.
Â
Davis set Ball State career records for passing yards (9,233), touchdown passes (74), completions (678) and total offense (9,732). He piled up those numbers in just three seasons and still ranks second in each category. Davis was the first player in BSU history to throw for 3,000 yards or more in back-to-back seasons. The John Magnabosco Award winner as team MVP in both 2007 and 2008, he managed a career record of 22-12 overall and 17-5 in MAC play. Davis was selected in the fifth round of the 2009 NFL Draft by the San Francisco 49ers.
