CORAL GABLE (CBSMiami) -- University of Miami quarterback Brad Kaaya has been invited into the Iron Arrow Honor Society for his work both on and off the football field.

Established in 1926 and considered the school's highest honor, the Iron Arrow recognizes students at the University of Miami who "exemplify five qualities based on the Seminole Indian tradition: love of alma mater, character, leadership, scholarship and humility."

"As a member of the society, Kaaya will take part in exclusive Iron Arrow events and be recognized at different Miami home games throughout the year. He now has the ability to secretly nominate a person who he believes exemplifies the qualities of the Iron Arrow Honor Society," the school said.

Kaaya, now in his junior season as the Hurricanes signal caller, ranks within the top five all-time in school passing records, including yards, completions, and touchdowns.

The Hurricanes host the Pittsburgh Panthers in their homecoming game Saturday at 12:30 p.m.
