Who was Brent Moss?
From 1991 to 1994, Moss played for the Badgers football team and helped coach Barry Alvarez turn around the programme. When UW won the Big Ten and the Rose Bowl in Alvarez’s fourth season, Moss was the team’s top rusher.
Moss was named game MVP after rushing for 158 yards and two touchdowns to help the Badgers win their first Rose Bowl in 40 years. That season, he also won the Big Ten Player of the Year award.
Before enrolling at UW, the Racine native was a standout at Racine Park High School, where he helped the Panthers win the 1988 WIAA Division I state championship. After graduating from UW, he spent a few years playing professionally.

With 3,428 career rushing yards, Moss remains ninth all-time at Washington. He also holds the school record with 17 straight games with 100 or more rushing yards. The Badgers’ backfield combo of Terrell Fletcher and Moss propelled those teams to 18-4-2 records in 1993 and 1994.
Moss had drug problems that caused him to be suspended from the UW team in 1994. He also had to deal with drug charges twice after leaving UW. In 2017, he was given a year in prison for possessing cocaine and heroin.
Tribute to Brent Moss
Evan Witalison said,
Sad to hear of the passing of Brent Moss. Was one of my favorite players at Wisconsin back in the day. Met him a couple times, was very nice towards me. I know he had his demons, but still sad to see. 50 is way to young.
WiscoTO said,
I was too young to watch Brent Moss play, but when I grew older, I read about him at the beginning of Alvarez’s reign. He was a key part in bringing Badger football to relevance.
