Jacob Huesman made history with his teammates Saturday.

The junior quarterback has gained more yards from the line of scrimmage than any football player in the history of the University of Tennessee at Chattanooga.

Huesman has accumulated 7,378 yards of total offense, which surpasses the previous mark of 7,247 held by former quarterback Chris Sanders.

“He should be proud,” coach Russ Huesman said. “He’s got a lot of people around him helping, but he’s a ballplayer. I was glad I got the chance to hug him in the locker room after.”

The coach’s son rushed for 22 yards on 13 carries and completed 26 of 33 passes for 250 yards and one touchdown in Saturday’s 31-13 win over Wofford.
