Follow along with other Cal fans as we welcome our newest recruits to become Golden Bears!

We will update this post with announcements on the new signings as they come in with analysis on each player!

5:20 a.m.: CB Kaden Cook from Texas is first in the door! He already committed in September 2023. Check out more of him Highlights from Hudl.

6:33am:LB Beckham Barney from Arizona is next! Here is our original commitment contribution. More of his highlights on Hudl.

About rivals:

“As a multi-sport athlete (baseball, football), Barney will add some versatility to the inside linebacker class with his ability to play multiple positions on the inside.”

Barney also played both ways last season.

6:45am:OL Ben Howard from Utah begins early signing. Here is our original commitment post. More of his highlights out of his senior tape on Hudl.

Scouting report via 247Sports:

(Howard) has tackle length with a wingspan of just under 80 inches and moves well. He’s a strong kid, physical at the point of attack and a finisher. He moves well laterally and shows the ability to slide, kick and get out on speed rushers, but is probably more advanced as a run blocker right now. His broad frame, feet and balance should allow him a smooth transition to defenseman at the next level and he appears to be an easy Power 4 contender

6:51 a.m.: A silent commitment in an emergency situation! Input Odera OkakaTop New Edge JUCO rusher from San Mateo. New story below.

7:01 am: Come in Meyer Swinney from Minnesota, brother of Bastian and a great pass catcher. Here is our original engagement post on Meyer.

A quote from his early involvement.

Coach BT and the entire offensive staff really make it feel like home and I think I can do great in the system playing wide receiver or tight end. A versatile 6-foot-3, 210-pound prospect, Swinney says the Bears will play him “outside, inside or in the wing/backfield.”
