Upland's Nunes to narrow options
Upland High School quarterback Josh Nunes, a junior who has received 15 scholarship offers, will whittle the list of potential colleges to five on May 27th, he said in an e-mail Wednesday.
Nunes will issue a verbal commitment to one of the five shortly after May 27th.
The offers for the 6-foot-4, 211-pound quarterback in chronological order: Arizona, Hawaii, Colorado, Stanford, San Diego State, Utah, Cal, Arizona State, BYU, Boise State, New Mexico, Louisville, SMU, Nebraska.
Nunes said he hasn't received any pressure but he'd like to make a decision so the interested schools can continue to recruit knowing his intentions.
Nunes has made unofficial visits to BYU, Boise State, Utah and Colorado (His visiit to BYU lasted three days). He has expressesed strong interest in UCLA but hasn't received an offer. If he doesn't receive one by May 27th, apparently he'll rule out the Bruins.
"I have done a lot of homework on the schools that have offered me so far and I will look closely at any school that offers me before memorial weekend." Nunes said. "I have been truly blessed to already have so many great choices to choose from."
The 2007 Baseline League co-MVP completed 57.4 percent of his passes for 2,105 yards and 14 touchdowns with five interceptions during the Highlanders 7-4 season that ended after a 29-28 loss to Glendora in the first round of the playoffs.
Nunes has a 4.6 GPA and scored a 1900 on the SAT.

I believe Richard Brehaut, the junior QB from Los Osos who was the Baseline League co-MVP and led the league in most passing stats (and great rushing numbers), also has received offers from most of those schools. For certain, I am aware of Arizona, Colorado, San Diego State, Boise State, Louisville, Washington State, Idaho State and a few others. He also was invited to compete for an offer at Stanford (which is the way they do it there). He has a number of workouts and camps still ahead. Among those expressing genuine interest but yet to offer are Ohio State, Notre Dame, Oregon, Oregon State, Kansas State, Alabama, Oklahoma, Fresno State, Arizona State, Cal, Nebraska, Clemson and UCLA.

Under the new SAT scoring system, a perfect score is a 2400. An 1800 is roughly equivalent to a 1200 on the old scale.

You better throw in Texas A & M into the mix....
I spoke with UCLA myself and he is still very high on heir list too.
Stay Tuned.
