Garoppolo goes to QB summer school before training camp

SANTA CLARA, Calif. — Jimmy Garoppolo is going to summer school before starting training camp with the San Francisco 49ers.

Garoppolo is spending part of his down time between the end of minicamp and the start of training camp on July 27 working in Southern California with quarterback guru Tom House.

House is a former major league pitcher and pitching coach perhaps most famous for catching Hank Aaron's record-breaking 715th career homer in the Atlanta Braves bullpen in 1974. But in recent years, House has run a quarterback academy in Huntington Beach called 3DQB where he helps passers refine their throwing mechanics.
