Orr attended Henry Ford High School in Detroit, Michigan,[2] and in addition to being a letterman in football and track, he served as class president his senior year.
With Wisconsin missing top receiver Lee Evans due to a torn ACL suffered in the Spring Game, Orr stepped up in a big way for the Badgers, catching 47 passes for 842 yards and 8 touchdowns.
As Big Ten conference play began, Orr was held to just one catch in Wisconsin's win over Michigan, their first since 1994.
In a game against eventual Big Ten champion Penn State, Orr found room for 89 yards on just 3 receptions against one of the top defenses in the nation.
In his final home game, the Badgers were upset by the Iowa Hawkeyes; Orr caught just one pass for 9 yards.
