Late Signing Day: San Diego signees

The recruiting class of 2021 in California has had to deal with more obstacles than any group of young football players in recent history. This week, Governor Gavin Newsom and health officials have talked with high school football coaches about a way to possibly get the players back on the field as early as March, which is exciting. But Wednesday, student-athletes and their families got a chance to take a break from the stresses of the news and celebrate signing their letters of intent. Here is a list of San Diego area football players who signed their letters of intent on Wednesday, Feb, 3. <strong>Devin Bale </strong>– La Jolla – K/P – Northern Colorado <strong>Hunter Bohannon</strong> – Westview – DB – Southwest Minnesota State <strong>Trey Bradford</strong> – San Marcos – DB – Fordham University https://twitter.com/SanMarcosFBall/status/1357023523240177664?s=20 <strong>[player_tooltip player_id="25211" first="Jessie" last="Campbell"]</strong> – Mater Dei Catholic – WR – Southern Utah Notes: One of the top receivers in the county. He was previously committed to Army and chose Southern Utah over some FBS schools like Air Force and New Mexico. Campbell is a lengthy receiver with long strides and can create matchup problems for some corners. <strong>[player_tooltip player_id="25033" first="Byron" last="Cardwell"]</strong> – Morse – RB – Oregon Notes: The top running back in the state. He had offers from Most of the top programs in the nation. Cardwell has the ability to make plays as a runner and a receiver. Shifty enough to make guys miss in space and strong enough to run between the tackles. <strong>Marquel Davis</strong> – San Diego – DB – Anna Maria College <strong>Troy Faulkner</strong> – Mission Hills – OL – Colorado State-Pueblo Notes: One of the best interior lineman in the county. He is a 4.0 student and a thrower on the track team. He is strong and athletic and does a good job finding linebackers at the next level in the running game. Faulkner will join his sister who is a track athlete at Colorado State-Pueblo. https://twitter.com/DFaulkner1801/status/1357068195316658176?s=20 <strong>Vincent Fonoti</strong> – Oceanside – LB – Benedictine (Kansas) <strong>Christian Gaeta </strong>– St. Augustine – DL – University of San Diego <strong>Clarence Johnson</strong> – El Cajon Valley – WR – Black Hills State <strong>Shawn Martinez</strong> – Helix – OL – Southwest Minnesota State <a href="https://prepredzone.com/2020/07/top-5-san-diego-section-quarterbacks/"><strong>Justus McComb</strong></a> – Granite Hills – QB – Southwest Minnesota State Notes: McComb is a dual-threat quarterback who threw for 2,691 yards and 24 touchdowns last season and ran for 494 yards and seven touchdowns last season. Performed well at offseason camps but would have benefitted from a senior season. He committed almost instantly after being offered by coach <strong>Cory Sauter</strong>. https://twitter.com/KUSIPPR/status/1357084575436967936?s=20 <strong>Jayden Parafina</strong> – Morse – DB – Southwest Minnesota State <strong>Noah Pisia </strong>– Christian – RB/LB – Western Colorado <strong>Shai-Rohn Ramsey</strong> – San Diego – WR – Lake Erie College <strong>Raymond Romero Jr.</strong> – Mater Dei Catholic – WR – Concordia St. Paul <strong>Domonick Schoop</strong> – Helix – DB – Southwest Minnesota State <strong>[player_tooltip player_id="25048" first="Josh" last="Simmons"]</strong> – Helix – OL – San Diego State Notes: Arguably the top offensive lineman in the state. For awhile he limited himself to only being recruited as a defensive player but had a change of heart and San Diego State was all in. Simmons wanted to stay close to home and will likely get early playing time at San Diego State. <strong>Kenneth Stevenson</strong> – Lincoln – RB – Southwest Minnesota State <strong>Gianni Walsh </strong>– Madison – OL – University of San Diego <strong>Bryzai White</strong> – Morse – TE – Eastern New Mexico https://twitter.com/CoachMYarbrough/status/1219829797800554497?s=20 <strong>Darhon Yarbrough</strong> – Morse – TE – Southwest Minnesota State Notes: Big body tight end at 6-foot-3 and 260 pounds and one of the many players in the class from San Diego to go to Southwest Minnesota State. He makes catches over the middle and is hard for defensive backs to bring down. Yarbrough is a very good run blocker as well.
