Times and has been on the prep beat for many years. <br /><br />latsondheimer<br />eric sondheimer<br /><br />Look for Gardena Serra defensive back Raymond Ford to sign with Cal.<br /><br />55 minutes ago via Twitter for BlackBerry <br />Retweeted by DavidERod and 10 others

Hope so, but I'll believe it when the LOI is signed and delivered.

That would be sweet!

Thank god

Great news, KAB, thanks for keeping things positive and nice work on Twitter too.<br /><br />Ford is a great get for us. <br /><br />Hoping for more good news.

Unfortunately he also says that USC is now in the mix for Treggs, per Treggs' coach

Man I hope this is true. He would be a very nice signing normally, but right now, a great pick-up.

Where was he headed before this point?

La

Great news if true! Real area of need, so a good pickup.

Horrible. He was going to make losing Shaq bearable.

This really is bad news...Ford is really good. Sucks but now we have more schollies I guess...*sigh*

Yeah, only to find out it was bad news. Just give us the bad news straight.

Yikes, we're pretty thin at DB. Given the new spread offenses in the Pac-12, we need all the DBs we can get.

Hopefully McClure can get back onto the field soon.

Gotta study.

What's new...

Today's hits just keep on coming.

:bawl:

Couldn't make Cal grades, but, he could easily be a Trojan - if he was taller

Class of 2012 18(?) LOIs - 16 show up.

Now, can't even rely of LOI submittals

This isn't a huge surprise. Well before Ford signed with Cal there were rumblings Nebraska had dropped him because he was going to have trouble qualifying.
