Back in high school, I saw sickening footage of USoCal's All-American goons, the McKeever twins (https://www.si.com/vault/1959/11/16/6010...-down-mike).

As a saving grace, Mike McKeever's son (Barry McKeever) chose Stanford over U$C and was a pretty good linebacker in the mid-80s until injuries slowed him down. I believe Barry was still an infant when his father was involved in the auto accident that eventually claimed his life (after being in a coma for almost two years).

You're right.  And Mike McKeever retired early from USC's team because of head trauma.  To his credit, after his football career, he was heavily involved with the United Way, City of Hope and Big Brothers.

Barry McKeever and Jennifer Hill of Stanford successfully sued the NCAA to avoid drug testing.
