Something from a couple readers who thought maybe Fresno State had a Kevin Hart situation. He's the Nevada High School football player who pretended to be signing with Cal a while back and embarrassed an entire community.

A story appeared in the San Bernardino Sun, which reported a fullback named Dylan Cruz had signed his letter of intent with Fresno State. (You have to scroll down to find it.) Dylan Cruz wasn't listed on any of Fresno State's releases. According to a Redlands East Valley school official, Cruz didn't actually sign. He's a Fresno State walk-on recruit who the school included in the signing ceremony.

There's your breaking non-news of the day.

While we're here, a Kevin Hart update: A TV station is now reporting that Fernley High coach Mark Hodges' contract will not be renewed by the school district. According to the story, Hart's coaches had been told by a Cal assistant that Hart wasn't being recruited. This was supposedly days before the whole school showed up in the gym for the "signing" ceremony, but somehow, the ceremony was held anyway.

I had a column about it, too, where I basically said perhaps high school athletes get enough positive affirmation that we don't need ceremonies for them to sign their national letters of intent. You and your mom and dad go to the library. Sign it. Fax it off together. It was a good high school career. Let's move on.
