DaJohn Yarborough, Four-Star IOL, Commits To Bears

At 6-foot-5 and 340 pounds, Yarborough’s frame will comfortably command an interior spot for Cal.

FB Recruiting from here - July 1st

The dead period starts now and recruiting won't get back online until August and not really in full bloom until the season starts.As stated previously, I think Cal will land DaJohn Yarborough and I believe there's at least a 50% chance Sam LeJeune flips his commitment from FSU to the Bears.That would be a very strong class despite a bit of a June swoon.There are going to be a lot of opportunities for flips particularly if the Bears get off to a good start in the season. Both names and others who may have committed early elsewhere but whose interest in Cal wasn't obviously made publicCal has other players it likes but wants to evaluate in the Fall, however, they don't have to take a 28 person class and can instead reserve resources for the Portal. There will not be any backup planning or settling. If they can't get HS recruits they love, then they will go after portal players they love.

The latest on the remaining class of '27 targets

Increasingly likely that Hayden Stepp will choose Oregon on Wednesday. They were his earliest suitor before his lead recruiter took a HC job at Cal and has gone back and forth between the schools. He seems to have settled on the Ducks despite a far less obvious path to playing time as the glitz and prestige win out. At least for now . . .Conversely, the confidence grows for DaJohn Yarborough to pick the Bears as his college destination. The colossally sized 4 star IOL will announce on July 11thEli Woodard's lean towards Miami feels like it has solidified. The Hurricanes national prominence, their success with WRs, the South Beach location all feel like factors. His head likely leans towards the Bears but his heart seems to be in Florida. Despite Sam LeJeune's recent commitment to Florida State, this is a young man that feels far from certain and at risk of sounding like UCLA honks talking about Myles Baker, this process is FAR from overCal put themselves in position to create some flips with players with whom they were finalists and didn't get the verbal nod. If the Bears can create some momentum on the field in September and October, look for 2-4 highly rated recruits to reconsider their decisions including Stepp and Woodard.

Tuesday afternoon update

Greetings. Gorgeous day here in the Bay Area. Snuck 18 holes in this afternoon which was wonderful.Came back to some updates on Cal's targets:Hayden Stepp : Oregon is working to make it hard for him to say no to the Ducks. Toss up though Oregon will be hard to beatBrody Rudnicki: This one feels good. Truly a 2028 recruit but the vibes are positiveSam LeJeune: We're less from 24 hours from his decision. Very close between the Seminoles and the Bears. I had heard on Sunday, some of the doubts about FSUs coaching staff were nagging at him, however he has said he's going to go with his heart and guts. While it's a toss up, FSU may be where he wants to be. Even if he does select the Seminoles, I don't think his process is overDaJohn Yarborough: I think the same concerns LeJeune has with FSU are shared by Yarborough and in his case, I think it's a tipping point in Cal's favor. I don't believe UW is a factorUhila Wolfgramm: Another coin flip. BYU is close to home, a HC who really resonates with his family and it feels like the Cougars may have a slight lead at the moment. The more time he takes after his OV to Provo last weekend, the better for Cal to let the glow of that wear offEli Woodard: He originally decommitted from USC because he loved Miami. Their track record with WRs, their financial commitment and their national prestige are all real factors. That said, he really likes Cal, the staff and having his HS teammate here is not small pudding. UCLA is likely on the outside looking in. The latest I'm hearing is that he may be a slight Miami lean. He's going to announce soonBrayton Feister: As I've said over the last week, he feels like the Ducks to lose. Cal wants him and he feels the love but will it be enough?Jason Johnson: Announces next Monday, He's going to Texas.

National Average Rating

The National Average Rating is a proprietary formula that calculates an industry-wide aggregate rating for each recruiting prospect. The formula includes publicly listed grades, scores, ratings and rankings by national recruiting services, along with a Bear Insider rating. Combining the data provides a rating for each prospect, which is then normalized to fit the Bear Insider Rating 100-point scale.

The intent of this rating is to provide Bear Insider readers with a comprehensive snapshot of how individual prospects rank nationally.

Bear Insider Rating

99-100: Elite national prospect (Five-star)

Considered one of the best prospects in the nation and a likely difference-maker at the collegiate level. Displays all of the physical skills to be a future All-American with potential to be an early-round NFL draft pick.

90-98: Elite state prospect (Four-star)

Considered one of the best 30-40 prospects in the state and a top 250 national prospect. Displays the physical skills to be a major early contributor at the collegiate level with high professional potential.

80-89: Quality prospect (Three-star)

Considered one of the best 100 prospects in the state and a top 500 national prospect. Displays the physical skills to develop into a contributor over the course of his college career. Has the ability to become a professional prospect over time with development.

70-79: Solid prospect (Two-star)

Considered one of the top 250 prospects in the state. Has the physical skills to be a potential contributor at a D-1 program over the course of his collegiate career with significant development. Professional potential is low.

Staff Predictions

The predictions represent which school each staff member believes will ultimately sign the recruit, and the confidence meter represents his level of certainty in that outcome.

Example #1

If the predicted school is Cal and confidence is set to “High”, then the staff member is saying “I believe that this recruit will ultimately sign with Cal and I feel very certain about that.”

Example #2

If the predicted school is “Alabama” and confidence is set to “Low,” then the staff member is saying “I believe that this recruit will ultimately sign with Alabama, but I’m not very certain about that.”
