    John Carroll University in Cleveland, Ohio:
    --- Head Coach Don Shula of the Miami Dolphins who won Super Bowl VII and VIII.
    --- Linebacker London Fletcher of the St. Louis Rams who won Super Bowl XXXIV.

    Everybody knows about Coach Shula. As for London Fletcher, he was undrafted and ended up having a superlative career. He never missed a game in his career, being one of only five players in NFL history to play in over 250 consecutive games and holding the record for consecutive starts at the linebacker position. He finished his career with 215 consecutive games started.

    San Diego State University. Joe Gibbs played and was an assistant coach. John Madden was an assistant there also, and I think maybe Ernie Zampese? Marshall Faulk later played and won a SB with the Rams. There are certainly other players from SDSU who have won Super Bowls, but that's all I can think of without research.

    Arkansas. Jimmy Johnson as both a player and later a defensive coordinator there.
    Jason Peters played at Arkansas as primarily a tight end and evolved as a future HOF LT with the Bills, Eagles, and the Cowboys.
