Stefan McClure; a Golden Bear


<<<-----McClure makes the Call:
Vista HS Cornerback Stefan McClure made his college announcement this morning, pledging to the California Golden Bears. McClure's other final suitors included Oregon St, UCLA, Boise St and Michigan before deciding on Cal. McClure has said, even though he is going as a defensive back, the coaches at Cal have talked to him about playing Wide Receiver at Berkeley.

Recruiting Roundup:
Christian Heyward (Point Loma HS) and Ian Seau (La Costa Canyon HS) are among the notable SD County HS football players yet to choose a college. Heyward is visting SDSU this weekend, after seeing Oregon last week and UCLA the week before. He has also visited USC, a decision will likely come on signing day. Meanwhile, Seau picked up offers from BYU, Arizona and Colorado St. before his senior year but is now only considering Arizona St. which he visited last week and Kansas St. which he is visting this week. A decision from Junior Seau's nephew is expected on signing day.
-Beau Reilly Quarterback @ Valley Center HS (Escondido, CA) has said that when he continues his amateur football career in 2014 following his two year mormon mission, it will most likely be in Fort Collins, Colorado; home to Colorado St. His brother Drew (also at Colorado St.) recently returned from his mission and will begin workouts with the rams in the next couple weeks. He is not committed to CSU and is still talking to BYU, Stanford and SDSU. A decision will come in the next couple weeks.
-Torrey Pines Quarterback John Cabot decided earlier this week to commit to Penn St. as a preferred walk-on starting in 2011. Cabot had offers from Idaho and Northern Colorado and took a visit to San Jose St. last weekend. Penn St. is not bringing in a scholarship quarterback in the 2011 class, and freshman starter Robert Bolden has decided to transfer. Cabot works with renowned quarterback coach George Whitfield and made great strides from his Junior to Senior season.
