Nate Longshore Interview with the Examiner

The Nate Longshore Media Train continues this week with Robert Calonge's interview with Longshore over at the examiner. You can read the interview here.

(Quick thoughts after the bump.)


It's interesting that I've posted more links about Longshore this week than I have in a few months, considering he'll likely wind up a free agent. But according to the interview, enough teams have expressed interest that it's feasible a team may take a shot and draft him in later rounds, just to ensure that he'll be in their camp come fall. Who knows?

It's a good and fairly lengthy read, which is a treat considering how tight-lipped Longshore had become with the media towards the end of last season. He addresses topics from how he's benefited from playing for Coach Tedford, his thoughts about fan reaction, and why he feels like belongs with all the top QB prospects.

Oh, and fun fact: Longshore scored a 37 on the Wonderlic exam, better than any combine QB scores, and Aaron Rodgers' score of 33.

always good to hear about bears doing well.

Adcock committed today! Cal's class is shaping up nicely. I'll not get too excited though...
HASIAK COUGH

FWIW, Hasiak was technically a UCLA commit, who switched to Cal at the last minute, who switched back to his original choice.

This would be more akin to Steve Williams switching from Oklahoma to Cal.
