...and became first team AA's. Tight end Charles Young (Edison High) in '72, Olineman Pat Howell (Fresno High) in '78 and S Tim McDonald (Edison) in '82 & '83.

That great '72 SC team had three Fresno guys that were starters. TE Young, NG Monte Doris (Fresno High) and LB Charles Anthony (Edison). Marv Goux had this town sewed up for SC back then. They got the cream of the crop from here. One great one that they did lose was FB Steve Bisceglia (Bullard '69) who played FB for the Bear at Bama. He was one scary dude on the football field. Howell told me once that Goux told him not to visit ND when he was being recruited...or strongly mentioned not to visit ND lol.






USC also had Paul Green from Fresno - pretty good TE...

...two years after graduating from Bullard. Fresno City was in the middle of winning four California JC state football championships in a six year period back then. Steve was on one of those teams. All local kids. Many went on to start on what are now Power 5 teams.

One of the Bullard assistant coaches that he played for was always pumping Bama back then. Steve and Johnny Musso were the two Italian running backs that played for the Bear then. Steve also made the cover of SI while at Bama. On a pile-up on the goal line. His helmeted head is sticking up in the middle of it.
