Greg Mangan established himself as one of the most accomplished quarterbacks in OberlinĀ College football history during his four-year career from 2005 to 2008.Ā 

A four-year letterwinner and two-time All-North Coast Athletic Conference selection, Mangan remains the only quarterback in program history to surpass 7,000 career passing yards, finishing with 7,002. He is tied for first in school history with 48 career touchdown passes and holds the program record with 591 completions. His career completion percentage of 63.3 percent also stands as the best in Oberlin history.Ā 

Mangan delivered one of the college's best individual seasons as an Oberlin College quarterback in 2006, completing a school-record 67.4 percent of his passes while setting the program's single-season passing record with 2,404 yards. He also produced two additional top-nine passing seasons, throwing for 2,236 yards in 2007 and 1,869 yards in 2008. Mangan concluded his career ranked second in program history with 6,794 yards of total offense.

With Mangan leading the offense, Oberlin recorded two of the three highest single-season yardage totals in school history, compiling 3,804 yards in 2006 and 3,853 yards in 2007. He helped the Yeomen post a pair of 5-5 records, marking the program's most successful seasons since the 1974 team finished 5-4.

Following his playing career, Mangan remained closely connected to football. He began his coaching career in the San Francisco Bay Area, serving as a volunteer assistant coach and videographer at City College of San Francisco in 2009 before coaching quarterbacks and defensive backs at St. Ignatius College Preparatory in 2010.

Mangan returned to Oberlin in 2011 and spent two seasons as the Yeomen's quarterbacks coach. In 2013, he joined the football staff at Stanford University, where he coached for nine seasons. He worked with Stanford's defensive backs from 2013 through 2017 before moving to the offensive side of the ball to coach quarterbacks from 2018 through 2021.

Mangan, an English major at Oberlin, later began a career in education. He served as an English teacher and head junior varsity football coach at St. Ignatius College Preparatory in San Francisco. He currently teaches English and serves as the head football coach at Convent & Stuart Hall, also in San Francisco.Ā
