He is a graduate of the University of Oregon, and was a 3-year starter on the Oregon Ducks football team. Joey's paternal grandfather, Bernie Harrington was an All-American at the University of Portland in the early 1940s, and went to all of Joey's games until his death in 2002. Joey's father, John Harrington, played quarterback for the University of Oregon from 1967 to 1969 for legendary coach Len Cassanova. In fact, after hearing about Joey's birth, Cassanova jokingly sent his parents a letter-of-intent.
