Glendora QB Jeffries commits to San Diego State

Multiple media outlets are reporting that Glendora senior-to-be Chad Jeffries has verbally committed to San Diego State. The 6-foot-2, 177-pound quarterback could be the latest headliner at his position to come out of the Baseline League, following in the footsteps of Los Osos' Richard Brehaut (UCLA) and Upland's Josh Nunes (Stanford) in 2009 and Rancho Cucamonga's Greg Watson (Fresno State) and Etiwanda's Angel Santiago (Army) in 2010. Jeffries is rivals.com's seventh-rated pro-style quarterback in the country and the 40th-ranked player in California.

Glendora will play its first season in the Baseline League this year after spending the last eight years in the Sierra League. Jeffries, the MVP of the Nike Camp at USC this summer, figures to have a large impact in a Baseline League that retained five of its members and replaced the departed Claremont with Glendora, which has won or shared the Sierra League title each of the last three seasons.

Jeffries chose San Diego State over scholarship offers from Utah, Oregon State and UTEP. He told the San Gabriel Valley Tribune he's "pretty sure about this commitment."
