Cal Football recruiting scouting report: Shurod Thompson

The 2016 Class keeps on rolling like a Limp Bizkit song

Finally, an S. Thompson has committed to play safety for the Bears.

At a position that has been less than stable over the last couple year, the Bears scored a local recruit to come play safety in Shurod Thompson. Thompson is considered to be a top-10 safety nationally, and is tops in the Bay Area with a 1st team all-Bay Area selection. Our 2014 secondary was held together by glue, duct tape, and the odd piece of gum, as at least three converted wide receivers (Piatt, Worstell, and McGovern) got significant playing time, with walk-on David Gardner getting his fair share of field time as well.
