PrintNormally, I'm against these glorfied exhibitions, especially of high schoolers. but there are a LOT of Cal commits and prospects in action today. chowder's got the list of future (and potential future) Golden Bears you need to watch.
List of Cal Commits and 'Considering' Players at the Army All-American Game
East:

..Gabe King
..Arie Koundjio
..Jeffrey WhitakerWest:
Commit:
..Austin Hinder
..Cecil WhitesideConsidering:
..Sean Parker
..Owa Odighizuwa (sure, he recently wrote Cal off, but maybe Martin, Whiteside, and Hinder can flip him)
Four commits, six prospects. Plenty of faces to follow in this game. And seriously, do you need an excuse to watch more football?

How’s Martin playing for the East and Hinder for the West when they both went to school in Colorado?

Oh man, Hampton just kicked Vols fans in the groin

That’s. Too. Bad.
I could see him going to a Pac-10 School if USC hires away a Pac-10 coach
It's dat Woo Woooooo.

Wazzu or OSU seem ideal for him. ASU maybe, but it needs to be remote…
Still think the Raiders take a flyer on him if they don’t grab Harbaugh.

I’d think the Raiders would look at the many NFL coordinators

Hehe, Oregon gets their man in Dior Mathis, and Ohio State misses on big time prospect Shariff Floyd (to Florida)
It's dat Woo Woooooo.

Hinder’s in the game… His OL immediately gets handled, resulting in 5 yard loss on sack.
Welcome to Cal! =P
It's dat Woo Woooooo.
Getting him use to playing at Cal

Sweet, he’s a good ol’ ballcoach, he’ll fit in perfectly there. Although going from scoring five TDs a game to five FGs could be jarring for Red Raiders fans.

Supposedly Tuberville is going to leave the offensive system in place and just CEO the team/install a new defense. We’ll see.

Was that him…? I looked away for a second an then saw the end of the play but wasn’t sure who threw it
It's dat Woo Woooooo.
by Thoroughbred on Jan 9, 2010 12:17 PM PST up reply actions
Pretty sure it would’ve been Hinder or Baxter because they’ve been giving the QBs a quarter each.. (4th quarter, they put in Heaps on the first drive -with the pass to Woods- and they may switch each new drive)
It's dat Woo Woooooo.
by Thoroughbred on Jan 9, 2010 12:25 PM PST up reply actions
Heard he’s staying put. Dillon Baxter might decommit though, he was NOT happy to hear the news.

Yeah, not exactly caring about it right now. He can drop those 100 times out of 100 if he wants. Just come to Cal!

BOOM! There’s a hit by Cecil

Does anyone else hate this broadcast team as much as me?
Part of why I hate nd.
Powell to Florida
Thank goodness. Don’t want any unpleasant surprises (5 stars ending up at rival Pac-10 schools).
