There was a Tweet on Twitter stating Blake has committed to Indiana State. He would come in as a junior and have 2 years remaining.

How come he would come in as junior and have two years remaining? Is he not graduating high school in 2012?
 
Outstanding!!!!

A good breakdown of quarterback recruits if all works out -- a high school recruit, a juco recruit and a FCS transfer. I like it.

I know its early, but I can't help but think this maybe our starting QB next year.

Depends on the direction of the offense, if we are going in the direction of a more common style of college football in that semi-option oriented offense to take some of the rushing pressure off of Shakir then I am not sure if you can see anyone other than Watkins or the Minny kid. If we continue the Pro-style this kid would be likely but if this Tonyan kid is for real I wouldn't be surprised if in 2 years he is the starter.
 
Questions

What happened that caused his team to forfeit several games?
And, why did Loncar not play in the last two games of the season?

And here is an answer to one of your questions.....

Nov. 8, 2011 - Citrus College has reported the participation of an ineligible student athlete in three contests that it won this season (2011). The following contests will be declared forfeits:


Sept. 3, Citrus vs. West Los Angeles - West Los Angeles is designated as the winner
Oct. 1, Citrus vs. San Bernardino Valley - San Bernardino Valley is designated as the winner
Oct. 29, Citrus vs. L.A. Harbor - L.A. Harbor is designated as the winner
 
And more.....

The football team was forced to forfeit three games from the 2011 season when it was discovered that an ineligible player was on the Citrus College roster.

The violation cost the Owls the Central West Conference title and a shot at playoffs.

"It's unfortunate that one kid lied about eligibility," head coach Ron Ponciano said.

"We would have won league, but this disqualified us from that."

"The student gave out false information on the form 1 Student Eligibility report," Ponciano said. He violated the form's section 2, which requires any athlete to report any competition in a scheduled game in any institution above the high school level during a sports season.

The Citrus team would have finished the fall 2011 season with a record of 6-4 overall and 4-1 in conference, but factoring in the three-game penalty, including a conference win over L.A. Harbor, the Owl's official record is 3-7 overall and 3-2 in conference.

The ineligible player, whose identity has not been revealed, previously played college ball out of state and had already completed his two years of athletic eligibility limit.

On Oct. 29, in a game against L.A. Harbor, a coach from the other team recognized the player and immediately notified Ponciano.

The Citrus College athletic department contacted the Southern California Football Association to acknowledge the error. The athletic department's official statement read, "As a result of misrepresented athletic status by one of our student athletes, we played an ineligible player in several of our football games."

Citrus informed the Commissioner of the SCFA Jim Satoris that one of its players was ineligible.

"Most schools won't do that," he said.

Before students can participate on a community college sports team, they must fill out form 1 of student eligibility. Form 1 is a contract students sign agreeing to the terms of participation in community college athletics. One of those terms includes maintaining a GPA of 2.0. In addition, Citrus recommends, but does not require, it's students send transcripts from previous high schools or colleges.

In this case, the student left some of the form 1 information blank.

"The coaches and I review their paperwork before sending it to the eligibility clerk," Citrus College dean of athletics Jody Wise said. "The information Citrus athletes provide the school is voluntary."

Even though campus officials might not have been able to detect or prevent the incident, the ineligible player's actions cost his teammates and coaches the chance to play in a bowl game.

However, he will not face any further disciplinary actions from the administration.

Owls safety David Metcalf said he "was mad at the situation. It is what it is, but that doesn't take away from our good performance this season."

At the conclusion of fall 2011, 12 Citrus players were named to the All-West conference team.

Seven of the 12 earned first team honors, four from the offensive side, including running back Ricky Johnson, quarterback Blake Loncar and two offensive linemen Dylan Golightly and Byron Smith.

The offensive squad averaged 389.9 yards per game and scored 26 points per game.

Defensive player Rodney Fredrick-Mathews emerged as top defensive back, as he led Citrus with six interceptions and blocked two kicks on special teams.

Jesse Illi earned first team honors as well and is the first in Citrus history to do it twice. Illi finished the season with 60 tackles, 3.5 for a loss, one sack, three-break ups, and nine hurries.
 
Back "in the day" a player could move around to different areas of the country and end up playing 6-8 years of JC ball. They rarely were discovered as long as they kept moving like maybe from Montana to South Carolina and then to Texas, etc. Today's technology has pretty much eliminated that possibility for most who travelled around. Apparently not for this guy who played an extra year or so but just happened to run into a former coach that he either played for or against?
 
I like the tape on this kid...good arm nice accuracy...good pocket poise...only thing i don't like is he sits real deep in the pocket sometimes...he drops and never works his way back in...he is 6'5 he can sit in their a lil more...QB that stay back like that are harder to protect because the OL haas to cover more ground and the DL has more space to move and make moves opposed to someone who sits in the pocket because then the OL knows where he is and the DL can't run that far and it makes it easier on the OL...small fix though...kid has a great deep ball...it doesn't hang in the air and falls on the money....this kid can get it done..Lets just hope he has it mentally...I think that was fouch's strength...that is what is going to be hard to replace when it comes to ronnie...he mostly made excellent choices in that pocket....very smart football player that fouch was....
