"NFL Star Russell Wilson to Speak at Commencement
The quarterback and seven other recognized leaders will receive honorary degrees."
"Fans of Dartmouth and football know that Wilson has deep roots on the Hanover Plain: His father, the late Harrison Wilson III ’77—a Big Green receiver who also played shortstop and third base on the baseball team—and three uncles attended Dartmouth. Benjamin Wilson ’73, a former Dartmouth trustee, was the first of the four Wilson brothers to matriculate, followed by Harrison, John Wilson ’80, and Richard Wilson ’85.

More Dartmouth/Broncos connections. The mother, Mary Kelly, of former Dartmouth receiver Michael Riley ‘12, was Denver owner Pat Bolan’s personal attorney and has served as one of 3 trustees for the franchise in recent years. The Trust with overseeing the sale of the Broncos. The sale of the Broncos is now proceeding after the end of litigation that had been holding up the sale. Dan Riley, Michael's dad, was attorney for the trustees of the Pat Bowlen trust. Mary Kelly has a very nice Super Bowl 50 ring.
