Dennis Mosley        

Pronunciation: MOZE-lee
Position(s): RB

Dennis Mosley attended Rayen High School and lived in Youngstown, Ohio. He was the state champion in 100-, 220- and 440-yard dashes as well as a standout football star.

At Iowa, his 1977 and 1978 seasons were cut short by elbow and hip injuries, but still had a 77-yard touchdown run against Iowa State in 1977. During his senior season in 1979, he led the Big Ten Conference with 1,267 rushing yards, 1,502 yards from scrimmage, and 16 touchdowns. His 270 rushing carries was an Iowa record. He rushed for a career-high 229 rushing yards and three touchdowns against Iowa State. He was selected as a first-team All-Big Ten running back and as the most valuable player on the team, and earned 2nd team All-American honors. He finished his career as Iowa's career rushing leader with 2,133 yards.

He was selected by the Minnesota Vikings in the ninth round (232nd overall pick) of the 1980 NFL Draft, but was cut during preseason, and never landed with an NFL or CFL team.

Born 3/19/1957 and is 68 years old.

FAMOUS QUOTES from Dennis Mosley

I'd buy my offensive line steak dinners but first the money's got to be right.
...from Iowa vs. Michigan State on 11/17/1979 - Mosley talking about his record breaking season, and giving credit to his offensive line.


The first thing I want to do is have the ball autographed by everyone in the offensive line. Then I'll have the rest of the team sign it. This is the first game ball I've ever gotten at Iowa, and later on in life I'll look back on it with a lot of pleasure. The three records I set make me feel real good, but I didn't get the one I wanted most of all. I'm still after that 1000 yard season.
...from Iowa vs. Wisconsin on 10/27/1979 - Mosley talking about receiving the game ball after breaking 3 records on the day.
