Scott also holds offers from programs like East Carolina, New Mexico, Fresno State, Hawaii, Wyoming and Colorado State. Here are the various rankings of Scott.
Ryan Gorcey filed this report on Scott.
"It gives me a lot more motivation. I like the bigger schools, and bigger schools like that, they're almost within my reach. I can get it," Scott said at the time. "I just have to work even harder both in school and on the field."
- Scout: Three stars, 102nd best linebacker
- Rivals: Two stars
Here are the video highlights of Scott.
Scott joins junior college linebacker Da’Quan Patton as the two Cal linebacker commits in this class. The Bears now have a linebacking corps next year that will include starters Ray Davison and Devante Downs, but also Aisea Tongilava, Hamilton Anoa’i, Derron Brown and Cameron Goode.
Welcome to Cal Paul! GO BEARS!
