Gotta love those boys from USC.
Haden was a senior when I was a freshman, 1974. Haden was the QB when USC destroyed Notre Dame and put Ara Parseghian into retirement. ND was leading SC 24-7 at the half and then USC scored 48 points in the 2nd half to win 55-24. I'm counting on a repeat this Saturday.
As for Haden, below is his bio. I'm not sure what club he plays at in Los Angeles?
He quarterbacked the University of Southern California to three Rose Bowl appearances and two national championships. In his final appearance for USC in the 1975 Rose Bowl, he was named co-MVP. In 1988, he was inducted into the GTE Academic All-American Hall of Fame and into the Rose Bowl Hall of Fame in 1995.
He graduated magna cum laude and Phi Beta Kappa from USC in 1975. In 1978 he was named a Rhodes Scholar and studied philosophy, politics and economics at Oxford University. He received his Juris Doctorate from Loyola Law School in 1982 and in 1995 he was inducted into the National High School and Rose Bowl halls of fame.
A six-year veteran of the NFL, he played with the Los Angeles Rams from 1976-81. He was the Rams' 1976 Rookie of the Year, was named to the Pro Bowl in 1977 and was named the NFC Player of the Year in 1977 by the Washington, D.C., Touchdown Club.
Pat Haden joined Turner Sports in 1990 as analyst for TNT's coverage of NFL games. He is now paired with TNT's play-by-play announcer Verne Lundquist, a former CBS colleague, and analyst Mark May.
Haden also serves as a color analyst for CBS Radio's coverage of the NFL.
Currently, he is a partner in the Los Angeles venture capital firm Riordan, Lewis & Haden. Los Angeles mayor Richard Riordan, Chris Lewis and Haden invest in promising companies, mostly in high-tech fields.
