At the University of California, excellence is expected not just among students but in their sporting programs as well. The list of professional athletes that have been produced from the school is a rather extensive one. While many have hit home runs with their careers (or scored touchdowns, made a hole-in-one, a three-pointer, etc.), some such as Nick Perry may have needed an extra kick in the right program.
When the Packers drafted Nick Perry at 28th overall in 2012, they were getting one of the finest linebackers produced out of USC since the same organization snatched up Clay Matthews in 2009.
