Stefan McClure Chooses Cal, Decides Winning isn't That Much Fun

Four-Star cornerback Stefan McClure (Vista, CA/Vista High School) has decided that he will take his talents to Berkeley and play for Jeff Tedford and the Golden Bears. He had narrowed his choices down to Cal, UCLA, and Boise State. You all may remember McClure from the Under Armour All-American game two weeks ago where he intercepted a pass and took it deep into East territory. It was a play that had Bronco fans everywhere salivating in the most covetous and hopeful way. Yet it wasn't meant to be.

I'm actually surprised that he didn't pick UCLA. It was reported that McClure had been in almost constant contact with Bruin coach Rick Neuheisel. But the school up North stole him away from the under-achieving graps of "that other team in Los Angeles." It is a great pick up for Cal. McClure will join an already loaded defense that looks to return to Pac-12 title contention (remember, they were the only team to take it to Oregon during the regular season).

Now where does this leave Boise State? It is certain that Coach Pete and his staff will be working overtime to try and get a cornerback. Bakersfield High School product Mercy Maston has to be number one on their list. If that doesn't work out, Rahmel Dockery is still around, along with Justice Sarcedo. However, if Maston doesn't work out, don't be surprised if they go away from that position and pick up local product (and middle linebacker) Cody McCarthy from Bishop Kelly High School.

Let's sit on the edges of our seats in anticipation of what the Bronco coaching staff will come up with. Who knows, there may be a surprise recruit from out of nowhere that joins the team.
