Hunter Cantwell once put together one of the toughest, most grittiest performances by any quarterback in Louisville football history, let alone by a former walk-on. It was the Gator Bowl in 2005 where starting QB Brian Brohm was out with a knee injury, and the Cards were on the verge of a breakthrough nationally.
Up until this point in his career, Cantwell had very little experience and Louisville fans knew little about him coming in as a sophomore walk-on QB. Now instead of holding the clipboard on the sidelines, Cantwell would be the man under center in an important game for up and coming Louisville.
