Melvin Gordon, Wisconsin Football (2014)

Melvin Gordon turned his junior season into one most explosive campaigns in Big Ten history, and The Journey was along for the ride. In 2014, Gordon ran for the second-most single-season rushing yards in FBS history with 2,587, trailing only Barry Sanders. He not only won the Doak Walker Award, but also was also selected to be first-team All-American and first-team All-Big Ten before finishing as the Heisman Trophy runner-up.

During the season, Gordon also briefly held the FBS single-game rushing record with 408 yards against Nebraska and led the nation with 29 rushing touchdowns. Gordon was selected 15th in the 2015 NFL draft by the San Diego Chargers and shot to the top of the depth chart.

Adreian Payne, Michigan State Basketball (2013)

The story of Adreian Payne and Lacey Holsworth touched the hearts of so many in 2013 and 2014. Payne?s bond with the 8-year-old girl stricken with neuroblastoma led to some incredible moments, including Lacey?s presence at Payne?s senior night. Payne was a second-team All-Big Ten honoree in his junior and senior years, and left East Lansing as the Spartans? all-time leader in blocked shots. Payne is also one of only nine players in MSU history with 1,200 career points and 700 career rebounds.

He was selected by the Atlanta Hawks in the first round of the 2014 NBA Draft and traded to the Minnesota Timberwolves, where he currently plays. Payne?s best professional game came in March of 2015 when he put up 16 points and 15 rebounds when starting in place of Kevin Garnett. Watch that 2013 episode of The Journey.
