Kareem Hunt finished his career at Toledo as the program’s all-time leading rusher with 4,945 yards over four seasons. He notably broke out in his sophomore and senior seasons, where he accumulated 1,631 and 1,475 yards respectively. Hunt accomplished plenty as a four-year starter as a Rocket, including tying the record for most rushing touchdowns in a bowl game (5), but his contributions in the Reese’s Senior Bowl really captivated the NFL scouts.
