Jerry Gustafson Stanford QB 1955

Correct.  Gustafson was drafted in the 27th round by the 49ers, but did not play in the NFL. He played a year in the Canadian Football League, then joined the Army. The American army.

Don Sanders graduated a year before Gustafson, drafted in the 28th round by the 49ers. I've seen him listed separately as a quarterback and a defensive back. He became a city planner and realtor in Modesto.

Steve Stenstrom played for the 49ers in 1999, his last year in the NFL. He went 54/100, with 0 TDs and 4 INTs.

Two schools have ignominious AP College Football streaks.

1.  The last time they were ranked was 1960.  This is currently the longest string of non-appearances by a school that was ranked at least once.

2.  They have never been ranked and now have played Division 1 (known today as FBS) football longer than any school without receiving recognition at least once. 

Who are they?

I read that North Texas State was last ranked in 1959, then recently entered the AP Top 25 at #22. So that doesn't count.

Yep. That is what prompted my question.  N. Texas is off the “longest since their last ranking” spot replaced by the answer to #1.

Bob - No to Harvard.  They are not “Division 1 (known today as FBS)”.
