The consummate leader on the field and in the classroom, Kansas' Todd Reesing will end his career in Lawrence as the most prolific quarterback in school history and the owner of nearly every school passing record.

A native of Austin, Texas, Reesing holds a double major in Finance and Economics, positioning himself as a regular on the KU Dean's List with a 3.64 grade point average. Named a First Team Academic All-Big 12 selection in 2007 and '08, he was the recipient of the Nolan Cromwell Leadership Award last season. 

Among active NCAA players, Reesing is third in career passing yards per game (271.7), fourth in total offensive yards per game (288.5) and fifth in four other categories, including touchdown passes and touchdowns responsible for (96). He is the only quarterback in KU history with multiple 400-yard passing games in a career, boasting two in a row just this season. A 2007 Big 12 Second Team pick, he led the Jayhawks to the first back-to-back bowl game seasons in school history and holds a 25-8 record as a starter. Reesing has completed 826 passes for 10,006 yards and 83 touchdowns in his career. 

The two-year team captain participates in elementary school and hospital visits and represents the university at various "meet and greet" events. He has also served as a teaching assistant within the KU School of Business for two semesters. 

Reesing is the fourth NFF National Scholar-Athlete in Kansas history. He is currently a regional director for Dimensional Fund Advisors, a global investment firm.
