Irwin also made first team All-American WR for MaxPreps! The only WR since my time at Stanford who might compare as a high school prospect would be Ken Margerum. He was very highly regarded coming out of Fountain Valley High School in Orange County. It's hard to compare Iriwn and Margerum, though, because I can't find any high school football player rankings that far back, and the only high school all-american team that I could find for 1977 (Parade) does not have any wide receivers on it. On the other hand, Margerum's daughters are named Sunny and Windy, so there's that.
If there's one thing people have learned in Berkeley, it's that you can't put "Cal football" and "Rose Bowl" in the same sentence. The words just don't fit. You'd be better off linking "covered wagons" with "Mars travel." (Bruce Jenkins, Cal '70, SF Chronicle, Nov. 11, 2017)
