Did anyone see the documentary on Tood Marinovich? Pease was heavily featured, I had not idea the connection. Cool he had on the NC gear also. :thumb:

Yeah, I saw that. That was really cool and I agree, glad he was sporting the UNC gear! He seems like a great guy in the way he helped out Marinovich.

Isn't Jeff Pease teaching in Greeley and volunteering with the UNC Football program (as a coach)?

I thought that he said that in one of those interviews that air at half time during the games (on KFKA).

Woah! He changed the spelling of his last name, which made him very hard to search for.

Jeff Peace (formerly spelled Pease) returns to his alma mater in 2011 as a defensive assistant football coach.

Peace was a First-Team Kodak and Football Gazette All-American middle linebacker for the Bears in 1993 and 1994 after earning JUCO National Defensive Player of the Year honors in 1992 at Saddleback College after helping the team to the junior college national title.

After graduation, Peace spent a portion of the 1996 season as a graduate assistant coach with the Bears, but left early due to personal family matters.

He spent the next two years as the linebackers coach at Rancho Alamitos High School in Garden Grove, Calif., before moving to Foothill High School in Santa Ana to serve in the same role from 1999-01. Peace has also served as a team athletic performance trainer since 1997, specializing in explosive speed and strength.

In addition to his coaching duties, Peace is a special education teacher at Greeley Central. He and his wife of 10 years, Terri, have two children, Jackson and Isabella.

Those 2 bolded parts deserve a double rock on! :rockon: :rockon:

Any hope Pease can get Marinovich to be the offensive coordinator at UNC? LOL! Todd looked pretty comfortable on that beach, he'll never move from SoCa. He didn't move an inch during that interview.
