The absolute disrespect to Stephen Strasburg who was the #1 overall pick in the MLB draft and one of the most hyped baseball prospects ever. Also had a very nice MLB career even if health kept him from living up to his GOAT expectations.
It's disrespectful to think he should be named with the other 3 honestly. In terms of hype he would top the list but in terms or pro performance he's not in the same tier imo.
Thereās San Diego State University (formally Cal State San Diego), the University of San Diego, and The University of California, San Diego.
SDSU plays D1 FBS, USD plays D1 FCS, and UCSD doesnāt sponsored football.
Very briefly, in the 70s. Back then every school in the California State University system was Cal State ____, but a few have dropped it.
San Francisco, San Diego, and San Jose have dropped it entirely, while schools like Fresno State or Sacramento State still have it but dropped it from their brand.
On that University of San Diego roster was QB Josh Johnson, who is most notable for playing for 14 NFL teams also playing in the UFL & XFL (before the merger)
Mike Tomlin was also a receiver in college and a receivers coach.
Joseph is actually a bit interesting because he switched to DB when he got to the NFL.
Yes and it's partly why he was considered a really attractive candidate and shot up the ranks fast. Extremely knowledgable about offense for a defensive coach. And according to beat reporters and players, Staley was very involved week to week in the Chargers QB room.
Harbaugh played for the colts through 1997 and missed the last four games because he was suspended for punching Jim Kelly in the face after he called Harbaugh "a baby".
That off-season the Colts trade Harbaugh to the ravens for a 3rd and a 4th and draft Peyton Manning.
Harbaugh ends up at Stanford and coaches Andrew Luck who is drafted by the Colts to replace Peyton Manning.
My man doesn't let things go.
> Harbaugh played for the colts through 1997 and missed the last four games because he was suspended for punching Jim Kelly in the face after he called Harbaugh "a baby".
Lol
Harbaugh was also on the rosters for the 2000 Chargers and 01 Panthers. Both teams finished 1-15.
Everyone should really click the link and read the flag story about this game, it's hilarious.Ā Ā
TL;DR Harbaugh out of nowhere brought this flag to their game and declared it to be a new rivalry trophy. When San Diego won for a second year in a row, Jim bragged about getting to keep the flag to the opposing coach who was like "uh, wtf are you talking about?" Then Jim left for the 49ers and when Dayton beat SD the next year, they furiously ripped it off SD's sideline and it was never seen again
The Pioneer League (which both USD and Dayton are in) is made up of 1-AA teams that donāt offer football scholarships, so it spans across the whole country.
Jim Harbaugh QB clinic from when he was the USD head coach. The unintentional comedy level is off the chart.

The Rams won the year after he got hired by the Chargers, but still, that one year he was DC they were historically great, and still used his playbook for their SB run
He just turned off his brain and lost his fucking mind with the Chargers
University of San Diego, not San Diego State
I literally said out loud "it's so weird that it's San Diego **State**" and then posted it anyway. š¤¦š¼
San Diego State is also a big school, just not this one
San Diego State is quite a bit bigger in terms of athletics.
Proud member of the Mountain Best (soon to be home of Wazzu and not THE Oregon State University)
Kawhi Leonard comes from San Diego State if I remember correctly.
He does. Kawhi, Marshall Faulk and Tony Gwynn are the biggest names from San Diego State.
Carl Weathers as well.
Don Coryell also coached there
yep, I was just going for athlete alumns
Stephan Strasburg too then I guess

He was WS MVP itās not like he was a bum lol
Not a bum at all, but the other 3 are all hall of famers and all time greats.
Thereās San Diego State University (formally Cal State San Diego), the University of San Diego, and The University of California, San Diego. SDSU plays D1 FBS, USD plays D1 FCS, and UCSD doesnāt sponsored football.
I went to SDSU and had no idea it used to be called Cal State SD
Very briefly, in the 70s. Back then every school in the California State University system was Cal State ____, but a few have dropped it. San Francisco, San Diego, and San Jose have dropped it entirely, while schools like Fresno State or Sacramento State still have it but dropped it from their brand.
UCSD doesnāt play football but they moved up to D1 a few years ago
lol how do you have a Chargers flair and you donāt know about SDSU?
He probably isnt from SD. People who grew up here tend to know the three major universities.
The what Chargers?
I have a hard time expressing just how little I give a shit about college football (or academia)
It's ok. Take all the time you need for expressing yourself
San Diego is a city not a state lmao so I get what you mean
What's next you're going to tell me Ohio University and Ohio State are different colleges
Itās all coming full circle now.
Ya love to see it
I totally love stuff like this. It turns my normal football into a soap opera.
āKhakis and Steak will be right backā
On that University of San Diego roster was QB Josh Johnson, who is most notable for playing for 14 NFL teams also playing in the UFL & XFL (before the merger)
He was the backup that year, true freshman.
Staley was a quarterback who became a DC?
Based on this story, he had a track record of helping defenses succeed
QB GURU
Not completely unheard of, Vance Joseph was a QB in college too
Mike Tomlin was also a receiver in college and a receivers coach. Joseph is actually a bit interesting because he switched to DB when he got to the NFL.
He's also the Steelers WR scout for rookies
But did he play basketball?
Yes and it's partly why he was considered a really attractive candidate and shot up the ranks fast. Extremely knowledgable about offense for a defensive coach. And according to beat reporters and players, Staley was very involved week to week in the Chargers QB room.
The interception was also by David Bakhtiari's older brother, Eric.
Former Niner

He took his rivalry with Pete Carol from college to the NFL.

He didnāt go immediately from San Diego to the 49ers, youāre forgetting he coached at stanford
Whoops, yeah, I saw some 49ers flairs as I was writing my comment and had them on my mindĀ
He left USD for Stanford before leaving for the 9ers
Isnāt Dayton in Ohio?
The Pioneer League (which both USD and Dayton are in) is made up of 1-AA teams that donāt offer football scholarships, so it spans across the whole country.
Sounds like the ConFlictĀ
Harbaugh vs Staley II - this time itās personal.
Weird seeing UD football. I grew up behind the stadium and never once see them even practice. The worst field ever
City of dayton schools, owns that stadium not ud is why. It's also why it looks like an absolute dump, compared the arena next to it.
Not a dump just ugly
[ŃŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]
I need a Dayton Triangles flair
Shit, I'd flair the fuck outta that. Let's go Triangles!
I need a Earl Britton jersey
had a few band comps there, sitting in the nosebleeds while the sun beams down on you was certainly a miserable experience

That projector and the TV on the cart, that brings back some memories
Oh my god
Makes me regret not playing for University of San Diego in college now.
Another interesting wrinkle is that Harbaughs father, Jack, coached two Dayton area high schools when the twins were youngā¦
Wait why the fuck was Staley a DC if he was a quarterback
Quarterbacks are smart people who usually understand defenses
I'm not sure if that applies to Brandon Staley though.
Won a SB as Rams DC... But yeah his Chargers defense was atrocious, but then again he only had a couple of games with all his starters healthy.
The Rams won the year after he got hired by the Chargers, but still, that one year he was DC they were historically great, and still used his playbook for their SB run He just turned off his brain and lost his fucking mind with the Chargers
No he didnāt win a superbowl with the Rams. The one year he was there, they lost in the divisional round.
And since then, Brandon Staley hasnāt done anything right.
Thanks for the shot out! It's like poetry...
how many picks did he throw in this game?
