He even inspired the band to do a skit with a musician tosses the ball into the turf. Band was actually funny back then. And it had Michaelson for an announcer.You mean Cordivot? Seriously, fans (and the band) were ruthless back in the day. Never would fly today I suspect.
There are some very good programs in the North Bay. Marin Catholic, San Marin, Cardinal Newman.
Built like Jim Plunkett. Big strong dude. Threw a great sinker ball. If they allowed one hop throws, he would have been a great one. Then there was the skinny sleepy looking Guy. Cordova looked the part. Benjamin only threw a beautiful ball. Was obvious to everyone but the only one that mattered that Benjamin was the much better QB.
Cordova reportedly had a lot of EUTM.
Benjamin was a bit of a sulker.
Also, Cordova had days in practice where he looked and played just like Plunkett. Unfortunately he could never translate this into consistency on game day.
