Willis McGahee broke several records in the 2002 season with the Miami Hurricanes. He shattered school season records, carrying the ball 282 times for 1,753 yards (6.2 yards avg.) and 28 touchdowns. McGahee's ten 100-yard performances broke the Hurricanes' season record of eight, set by Ottis Anderson in 1978; he added 355 yards on 25 receptions (14.2 yard avg.) that season. He gained 2,108 all-purpose yards during 2002, which remains a Hurricanes' season record. Despite a gruesome injury that would force him to sit out his entire rookie season, McGahee was drafted by the Buffalo Bills 23rd overall.

This Buffalo Bills mini helmet was signed in blue by McGahee and includes a Great Moments COA.
