2019 Top 25 MAC Players: #1 Nathan Rourke, QB, Ohio

They call him “Air Canada.”

But what makes Nathan Rourke special is not just his playmaking through the air as a quarterback. The senior from Ontario has established himself as one of the best mobile quarterbacks in all of college football, and he has one more season of leading the Ohio Bobcats with dazzling playmaking.

The 6’1”, 210 pound quarterback first debuted in a 59-0 win over Hampton on opening day of 2017. On just six rushes in the game, he scored three times, foreshadowing what was to come. It was Rourke’s first of four rushing touchdown hat tricks that season.
