Zac Dysert is Miami's all-time leader in passing yards.

The Miami RedHawks football statistical leaders are individual statistical leaders of the Miami RedHawks football program in various categories, including passing, rushing, receiving, total offense, defensive stats, and kicking. Within those areas, the lists identify single-game, single-season, and career leaders. The RedHawks represent Miami University in the NCAA's Mid-American Conference.

Although Miami began competing in intercollegiate football in 1888, the school's official record book considers the "modern era" to have begun in 1948. Records from before this year are often incomplete and inconsistent, and they are generally not included in these lists.

These lists are dominated by more recent players for several reasons:

  • Since 1948, seasons have increased from 10 games to 11 and then 12 games in length.
  • The NCAA didn't allow freshmen to play varsity football until 1972 (with the exception of the World War II years), allowing players to have four-year careers.
  • Bowl games only began counting toward single-season and career statistics in 2002. The RedHawks have played seven extra games since this decision: four bowl games and four appearances in the MAC Championship Game, giving many recent players an extra chance to accumulate statistics.

These lists are updated through the end of the 2016 season.
