Will's Bio

Will now has his own column revolving around the New Orleans Saints, called Black and Gold X's and O's. It is intended to be an in-depth column bringing a coach's point of view on all things New Orleans Saints.

Will is co-host of a new podcast with fellow B/R Analyst Joshua Joffrion.

Will is a Senior at San Diego State University. He is a Communication Major, but plans on becoming a football coach either at the Division 1 level or the NFL.

He is currently the Freshman Offensive Coordinator/WRs Coach at West Hills High School in Santee, CA. Before that, he was an Assistant at Buena High School in Ventura, CA.

He also has a background in Scouting as he completed a course called Football GM & Scouting through Sports Management Worldwide. He was tutored by former NFL Scout, Russ Lande.

When Will is not grading NFL prospects, or doing Homework (which he never does), he works for Synergy Sports Technology as a Phase 1 Logger for College/Int'l/NBA Basketball.

He transferred from Ventura College after 2 years. That followed a brief stint at Oxnard College where played baseball as a Pitcher. At 6'4, Will had the arm, but not the overall talent.

Prior to Will's stint at Oxnard, he was a 4 year player at Rio Mesa High School. He also played one year of basketball for the Spartans.

Will was born on December 4th, 1986 in Long Beach, CA to Linda and Bill Osgood. He is the 5th William James Osgood in a row. Will is currently single and resides in San Diego, CA.

Will calls Kaleo Church in San Diego his church home, and his relationship with Jesus Christ is the most important thing in his life.

Will Writes About

The Short List What Will thinks about sport's most pressing questions

  • Favorite Athletes

    Drew Brees, LT, Chris Paul, Mark Prior, Albert Pujols, Alexander Ovechkin, Lance Berkman, Sonny Cumbie, and the list goes on...

  • Favorite Sports Teams

    Saints, Chargers, Cubs, Angels, Padres, Ducks, Hornets, Clippers, LA Avengers, UCLA Bruins, SDSU Aztecs, and Tennessee Vols.

  • Favorite Coaches

    Sean Payton, Tony Dungy, Steve Fisher and others

  • All Time Sports Moment

    When the Cubs win the World Series this year.

  • Most Memorable Game Attended

    Game 5 of the 2002 ALCS where Adam Kennedy hit 3 Home Runs (1 of them off then-reliever Johan Santana) and the Angels won the Pennant. That was an incredible atmosphere. Next, would be any of the USC-UCLA football games I've been to, especially the '06 upset on my 20th birthday.

  • Most Unbreakable Sports Record

    Cal Ripken's Consecutive Games Played streak. Will never be done again (not even close).

  • Ruth or Mays?

    Mays; he did everything. He was the ultimate 5-Tool Player. He ran, he fielded, he threw, he hit for average, he hit for power. And he made probably the most-memorable web gem of all-time.

  • Unitas or Montana?

    Both were great, but I have to go w/ Montana barely b/c his numbers are just a little more impressive in my opinion. However, in 5 years I think we'll be asking Montana or Brees?

  • Jordan or Russell?

    Jordan and then Chris Paul

  • Gretzky or Orr?

    Gretzky

  • Pele or Maradona?

    who?

  • Pac 10, Big 12, Big 10, SEC, ACC, or Big East?

    for Basketball and baseball I'd say the Pac-10, but for football definitely the SEC.
