    Ken Dorsey's place in Miami football history is secure. He left as the winningest quarterback in school history with a 38-2 record, a mark that still stands. His 86 touchdown passes set school and conference records at the time. The 2001 national championship season, where he threw for 2,737 yards and 26 touchdowns, was a masterpiece of efficiency. That year, he earned the Maxwell Award and finished third in Heisman voting, a testament to his dominance.As a coach, Dorsey has helped develop some of the NFL's top quarterbacks, most notably Josh Allen. His ability to connect with players and simplify complex concepts has made him a respected figure in coaching circles. Being named to Miami's Ring of Honor in 2025, alongside legends, underscores his enduring legacy. He is also a candidate for the 2027 College Football Hall of Fame class, a fitting tribute to a career that defined an era.
