George Patrick "Pat" Malley

George Patrick "Pat" Malley

George Patrick "Pat" Malley was Santa Clara University's head football coach from 1959 until his death in 1985. In his 26 years as coach, Santa Clara was 141-100-3 and had only five losing seasons.

"the legendary Pat Malley, who had been both the A.D. and football coach ... was a saint of a man, who revived football at Santa Clara on the Division II level and cared about each of his athletes as if they were his own kids. At a campus that is like a big family, Malley was the grandfather or uncle who looked after everyone. The men who played for him still talk of him today in reverent tones."
-- Mark Purdy columnist, [http://blogs.mercurynews.com/bay_area_sports/2006/03/george_mason_th.html "San Jose Mercury-News"]

Pat was a member of Santa Clara's 1950 Orange Bowl winning team.
