Thank you, sirs, and I will have another. Fresh off of a camp they held on campus Saturday, the Bears were in action again Sunday at Fullerton, where they added a second weekend commitment -- and a second offensive lineman -- thanks to Johnny Capra, out of Auburn.
Fight for California is such a nice phrase, and we got to hear them twice this weekend. Welcome, Johnny!

I have verbally committed to the Cal football family! Thank you Coach Dykes, Yenser, and CAL coaching staff for believing in me. #GoBears

Walked off the field from camp and got a great phone call! Welcome to the family big man! #calOL #norCAL

@CalCoachYenser you stand for everything we want to build this program around! #GOBEARS

We'll of course get into the film later, but here's a fun fact from Cal Rivals about him that should get everybody excited:
Craziest thing about new #Cal commit Johnny Capra? Was a 1st team all-league OL last year and that was his FIRST-EVER playing on the O-line.

A reported 3.75 GPA student, Capra is very, very excited about the academic program, as well:
Just chatted with @JohnnyCapra73 , #Cal's latest commit. "I couldn't get any better of an education," he says. #Number1publicschoolintheUS

Ah, and of course, I can't leave out this juicy detail -- he's got a younger brother, too, who we just offered yesterday. Already making inroads into the class of 201(7?), because it's never too early to do stuff like that.
A huge congratulations to my brother @JacobCapra71 on his offer today from Cal! A huge thank you to @CALCoachDykes and @CalCoachYenser .

The rankings:
Rivals: 3 star, 71st ranked player in California
Scout: 3 star, 91st ranked tackle
ESPN: Not ranked
247sports: Not ranked
Capra's rankings are odd because he isn't listed on the 247sports composite at all, but with senior years still to be played, I wouldn't worry too much about things like that at this juncture anyway.
Work's starting back up for me so I can't promise that I'll have a scouting report ready for Tuesday, but that's what we're looking at currently.
