Talented Bobcats squads produced several pros in the last half decade, led by three defenders drafted by the NFL.
The Bobcats have enjoyed a lot of success over the past five years, winning three-straight bowls from 2017-2019, while having some of the most productive offenses in the FBS, finishing in the top 20 in scoring offense in three of those seasons.
That success garnered interest from pro programs, where former ‘Cats have found a home. For instance, there are undrafted Bobbies on NFL rosters, including S Javon Hagan, who played in the 2021 NFC championship game and won a Super Bowl ring with Tampa Bay before being released and signed by the Arizona Cardinals.
