University of Saskatchewan Athletics

Brent Schneider's name is etched into the history of Huskie Football as one of its most accomplished student-athletes. Under centre for the Saskatchewan Huskies from 1992 to 1996, Schneider left as the program's all-time leader in career passing yards and touchdowns—titles he still owns to this day. 

During his time in green and white, Schneider guided the Huskies to two Hardy Cup Championships and Vanier Cup appearances in 1994 and 1996. In the 1994 national championship, he delivered a legendary performance, setting Vanier Cup records with 528 passing yards, 67 attempts, and 34 completions, earning the Ted Morris Memorial Trophy as MVP despite the Western Mustangs coming out on top 50-40 in overtime. Two years later, he led the Huskies back to the national championship and once again earned MVP honours after throwing for 237 yards and three touchdowns in a 31-12 victory over the StFX X-Men which saw the Huskies scored 31 unanswered, second half points.

A two-time Canada West Player of the Year (1993, 1994), Schneider was also a three-time conference All-Star and in 1996 was named a First Team All-Canadian and took home the University of Saskatchewan's E. Kent Phillips Trophy. He twice led Canada West in passing, cemented his reputation as one of the most prolific quarterbacks in both CIS and Canada West history.

After his playing career, Schneider returned to the Huskies as quarterbacks coach in 1998, helping secure another national title for the program. He later served as offensive coordinator and remained on the coaching staff until 2013, helping guide the team to five Hardy Cup championships and four more Vanier Cup appearances.
