Cal added their 15th commitment of the 2015 class on Sunday, as Cameron Saffle from Skyline (Sammamish, WA) announced his intentions to join up with the #CalGang.

The assumption is that Saffle, who is listed at linebacker on some recruiting outlets, will be coming to play defensive end -- we surely could use some -- because he had his in-home meeting with none other than his presumed positional coach: Fred Tate!

Saffle, who recorded 39 tackles and 8 sacks his senior season, holds reported offers from Air Force, Eastern Washington, and Idaho, ultimately selecting Cal...and he went through some unconventional means to do so:
Who was most responsible for new #Cal commit @cameronsaffle's offer? Try Saffle himself. Called the Communications Office to get Tate's #.
