Steve McAdoo is generally regarded as one of the best offensive lineman in school history, this despite beginning his Blue Raider career on the defensive side of the ball.
Blue Raider head coach Boots Donnelly's decision to move the Murfreesboro-native proved pivotal in the program's phenomenal success in early 1990s. McAdoo anchored an offensive line that produced 25 conference wins against only two losses and three OVC championships from 1989 to 1992. He earned back-to-back first team All-American honors (Associated Press 1991 & 1992) and helped lead Middle Tennessee to four NCAA playoff appearances.
McAdoo was well-respected throughout the OVC as coaches selected him to the All-OVC first team in 1990, 1991 and 1992. His highest conference honor came years later, however, when he was named to the prestigious OVC All-Half Century Team.
