1965

Alonzo Walter Highsmith, Sr. (born February 26, 1965) is an American football executive, former fullback, and former boxer.

He is a general manager for the University of Miami.

1982

Highsmith attended Christopher Columbus High School, where he played defensive end and helped his team reach the state championship final in 1982, while receiving All-American, Florida high school Defensive Player of the Year and the Dade County Athlete of the Year honors.

He also played basketball and ran track.

Highsmith accepted a scholarship from the University of Miami over offers from Notre Dame University and the University of Michigan.

Although he was recruited by Howard Schnellenberger to play defense, he was converted to fullback before his freshman season started.

1983

He was a member of the 1983 Hurricanes squad that won the national championship, and led the team in rushing during the 31–30 victory over Nebraska in the Orange Bowl.

1984

In 1984, Jimmy Johnson arrived as the new head coach and named him a starter as a sophomore, rushing for a team leading 906 yards on 146 carries (6.2 average) and 11 touchdowns.

One of the hardest working players on the team, he would develop into a complete fullback that could run, block and catch.

As a junior, he registered 451 rushing yards on 117 carries (3.9 average) and 6 touchdowns, including a school record 88-yard touchdown reception against East Carolina University.

In his last year, he was recognized as the nation's best fullback, while posting 442 rushing yards (led the team) on 105 carries (4.2 average) and 8 touchdowns.

Highsmith finished his college career with 1,914 rushing yards (second in school history), 2,935 all-purpose yards (fifth in school history), 25 career touchdowns (tied for first in school history) and five 100-yard rushing games (tied for second in school history).

1987

Highsmith was selected by the Houston Oilers in the first round (third overall) of the 1987 NFL Draft.

He reported to the team after a long contract holdout, that saw him miss 6 months and 6 games.

As a rookie, he played in 8 games (3 starts) and registered 106 rushing yards.

1988

On September 3, he was traded to the Dallas Cowboys in exchange for a second round (#38-Darryll Lewis) and a fifth round (#136-Tim Roberts) draft choice.

Although he had started 40 straight games with the Houston Oilers, he had a series of offseason knee surgeries that had doctors recommending against the Dallas Cowboys acquiring him in 1990.
