Brady Quinn was born on October 27, 1984 in Dublin, Ohio. Standing at 6 feet 4 inches and weighing in at 227 pounds Quinn is the perfect size for an NFL quarterback. And not only has he garnered a lot of attention on the field for his performance, but people have taken notice of his good looks off the field as well.

Quinn did not have a stellar high school football career at Dublin Coffman High School, but with that being said he did enough to set himself apart from the rest of the competition. In addition to earning a letter in football, Brady Quinn also excelled on the baseball field. In fact, he was all conference during his junior year and helped to lead his team to the state championship as a senior. But somehow, Quinn slipped under the radar of many college football teams in the country.

During the fall of 2002, Tyrone Willingham (former Notre Dame Football coach) became aware of Quinn and in turn offered him a full scholarship. This was all the opportunity that he needed in order to prove himself. The 2005 season was Quinn's coming out party. He threw for nearly 4,000 yards and finished the season with 32 touchdowns and only 7 interceptions.

Quinn also had a great year in 2006 by leading his team to the Sugar bowl by throwing for 3,427 yards and 37 touchdowns. He currently holds the record for most attempts, completions, touchdowns, and yards by a quarterback at Notre Dame. And this is saying a lot considering all of the great talent that has gone through the school.

Brady Quinn received a degree in Finance in the spring of 2007. Although he did receive his degree, Quinn is expected to be a top pick in the 2007 NFL Draft. So for now, he will be playing football as his chosen career path.
