— Who is No. 79? If said all the way through – including the "university" part – this school's entire name has 15 letters fewer than the longest word in the English language.
No idea where to start.
Looking for 30 letters?

Who is No. 75? This team's new defensive coordinator is 51-24 in his last 75 games as a coordinator.

Trivia note. John Savage, head UCLA baseball coach, is Ault's son in law. The AD at UC Irvine was a friend of Aults and Ault recommended Savage should UCI ever restart baseball (is was not being played at Irvine at the time). It was restarted about three years later and the AD took Ault's advice. When the UCI AD became the AD at UCLA a few years later and needed a BB coach, he hired Savage again. Turns out, not a bad hire....
Thank you Sirius/XM for the info.

Who is No. 74? Not to be too macabre, but this university's first chancellor is buried in the same cemetery as a singer who charted two top-16 singles, with the first in the fall of 1981.
