PLAYERS WHO WILL ANNOUNCE COMMITMENTS DURING THE GAME
Rayshon Luke Rayshon Luke 5'9" | 170 lbs | RB St. John Bosco | 2022 State CA : Luke is expected to be choosing between Arizona and Louisville. “Speedy” has earned his nickname and is one of the biggest big play threats at running back in the state. He has impressed so far at the team practices according to multiple reports.
CJ Williams CJ Williams 6'2" | 195 lbs | WR Mater Dei | 2022 State CA : Williams will be choosing between USC and UCLA. He was previously committed to Notre Dame, but withdrew his commitment after coach Brian Kelly left for the LSU job. Most recruiting experts expect him to join some of his Mater Dei teammates at USC.
Earnest Greene Earnest Greene 6'5" | 330 lbs | OL St. John Bosco | 2022 State CA : Greene has a top four of Alabama, Georgia, Ohio State and Texas. He attended an offseason camp at Ohio State and enjoyed the experience. Bosco has had linemen play at Ohio State before, but it looks like Georgia is the favorite to land Greene.
Hero Kanu Hero Kanu 6'5" | 295 lbs | DL Santa Margarita Catholic | 2022 State CA : Kanu has a top four of Georgia, Notre Dame, Ohio State and Oklahoma. He is the youngest player on this list at 17 years old and has only played 15 football games in his life. Ohio State will be the team to sign Kanu. Book it.
Larry Turner-Gooden Larry Turner-Gooden 6'1" | 190 lbs | ATH Bishop Alemany | 2022 State CA : He has been a mystery with his recruitment for awhile. I saw him at the Battle at the Beach passing tournament last summer and he is a physical specimen who is ready to contribute early at the college level. Texas is the favorite to land him.
