Yep. Steve played at FCC for...

...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.
