Jared Goff - Marin Catholic Quarterback

Marin County, California, is not known for producing elite football talent. Jared Goff changed that perception at Marin Catholic in Kentfield, throwing for 3,700 yards and 40 touchdowns while leading his team to a 14-2 record.

Columnist Steven Travers called Goff one of the best athletes in county history, mentioning him alongside former NFL coach Pete Carroll. Goff committed to Cal, staying close to home while joining a Pac-12 program that valued his mental, physical, and emotional makeup.
