  • Induction:
    2009
McNown started 44 of his 47 games as the Bruins' QB between 1995 and 1998, including the final 43 straight. During his senior season, McNown was a consensus 1st Team All-American, finished 3rd in the Heisman Trophy balloting (after finishing 8th the previous year), won the Johnny Unitas Golden Arm Award, and was a finalist for the Davey O'Brien Award. In his award-winning senior season McNown set single season UCLA records for passing yards (3,470), TD passes (25), and total offense (3,652). McNown also set single game records in those same three categories (513, 5, 515) in a 49-45 loss at Miami. That loss snapped a 20-game UCLA win streak dating back to the previous year. UCLA was ranked as high as No. 2 in the BCS standings during the 1998 season, and McNown finished the year by throwing for 340 yards in a Rose Bowl loss to Wisconsin. McNown left UCLA as the all-time Pac-10 leader in total offense (11,285), and the UCLA leader in passing yards (10,708), TD passes (68), completions (694), and attempts (1,250). McNown compiled a career record of 30-14 as a starter and was the 12th overall selection of the 1999 NFL Draft by the Chicago Bears. He is the only UCLA quarterback to beat USC four consecutive years.
