Top San Diego receiver flips to Washington State
Josh Meredith Josh Meredith 6'0" | 170 lbs | WR Mater Dei Catholic | 2021 State CA of Mater Dei (Chula Vista) committed to Washington State Friday.
He previously committed to Fresno State in August but when Washington State offered him Thursday, he withdrew his commitment and flipped to Washington State.
“It was a really hard decision because of my relationship with the Fresno State coaching staff,” Meredith told Greg Biggins of 247Sports. “I was really close with coach (Courtney) Morgan and coach Kirby (Moore, WR coach). Those are my guys and they showed me so much love during this process.”
“The biggest thing for me was the opportunity to play in the Pac-12. That has always been a dream of mine and I’m excited to play on that big stage. I thought if I’m going to showcase my talents, why not do it on the biggest stage possible.”
Meredith is a good route runner with good hands in a Mater Dei program which also features top receivers Jessie Campbell Jessie Campbell 6'2" | 175 lbs | WR Mater Dei Catholic | 2021 State CA (Army commit), Ray Romero with quarterback Trevor Appleman (New Mexico State commit). He is one of the top receivers in the San Diego area.

One of San Diego’s top D linemen headed to Duke
Mandela Tobin Mandela Tobin 6'4" | 270 lbs | DL Westview | 2021 State CA of Westview (San Diego) committed to Duke on Friday.
The 6-foot-4, 270-pound defensive end narrowed his list of schools to six in October, but said he would not commit until the dead period was over so he could take more official visits. The NCAA recently extended the dead period due to COVID which may have made Tobin decide to commit early.
Tobin is the first player from California in Duke’s 2021 recruiting class, which ranks 12th in the ACC according to 247Sports. He is the No. 20 defensive lineman in California’s 2021 class according to Prep Redzone.
