Football: Bishop Amat’s Price could end up being right for Bruins

Sheldon Price of Bishop Amat has been in impressive during several spring camps thus far, and based on his eye-opening performances, could be on the verge of landing his first official offer from an NCAA Division I program. The only question remaining is: Who’s going to break the ice and extend the initial invitation?

Perhaps UCLA will step forward. And the Bruins should, considering Price lists them as one of his favorites, according to these quotes. Expressing interest in the 6-foot-plus junior now could end up being beneficial down the road, especially if he continues to emerge as one of the hottest defensive back prospects on the West Coast.

Powerhouse schools such as LSU and Notre Dame have been in contact with Price. Cal, Colorado and Washington are among the other potential suitors, so, if I’m the coach over in Westwood, I’m going to jump on the bandwagon before anyone else does and attempt to keep the impressive Southern California kid close to home.
