BUCS STARS YEARS PAST
Mission Bay has a history of developing players who go on to play at the collegiate level—and even in the NFL.
Arian Foster dominated at Mission Bay so it's no surprise he not only made it to the NFL, but also became an All-Pro. Other Bucs who played in the NFL include Marcus Smith, Mike Houghton, Matt Maslowski, and Pat Shea. See below for more details about more recent graduates and where they are now.
