The Ratliff legacy

The Ratliff family is centered around one thing: their passion for football.

Phil Ratliff was one of head coach Brad Lambert’s first hires for the 49er program and quickly became a crucial member of the team. Tragically, he passed away right before the beginning of the 2015 season. His legacy, however, will never be forgotten.

Phil’s mantra “Rock Solid” can be seen all around the 49er football program and his family still remains heavily involved.

Dylan Ratliff has been around the game for as long as he can remember. He picked up the football at 8-years-old and decided that he wanted to be involved with the game for the rest of his life.
