Bay Area legend John Brodie dies at 90, 49ers quarterback era icon

John Brodie, the 1970 NFL MVP who spent his entire 17-year NFL career with the 49ers and ranks among the franchise's passing leaders, died at age 90. A Stanford alumnus and two-time Pro Bowler, Brodie helped the 49ers reach multiple playoff appearances, had his No. 12 retired in 1973, later competed on the Senior PGA Tour and worked as an NBC Sports analyst before suffering a massive stroke in 2000. He remains a revered figure in Bay Area football history.

Okorie's 36 Push Stanford Past UNC in Palo Alto

Ebuka Okorie poured in a career-best 36 points with nine assists to lift Stanford to a 95-90 win over North Carolina in Palo Alto. Stanford buried 16 of 28 threes (10 of 16 in the second half), while UNC led for 37:56 but couldn’t close, hampered by late turnovers and a cold second half from deep (1-for-9). Caleb Wilson and Henri Veesaar each finished with 26, going 12-for-12 from two in the final 20 minutes, and Luka Bogavac added 13 for Stanford. UNC had only seven assists on 32 made baskets, illustrating a ball-python offense, and the Tar Heels will look to rebound at Cal next.
