Many college football experts see Cal junior wideout DeSean Jackson as a Heisman Trophy candidate, but his campaign could hinge on the play of former Canyon High of Canyon Country quarterback Nate Longshore. "Nate is a great quarterback," said Jackson, who caught 59 passes for 1,060 yards last season. "We expect great things from him." One thing Jackson really admires about Longshore, who threw for 3,021 yards and 24 touchdowns for the Golden Bears in 2006, is his leadership ability. "He is very controlling in the huddle," Jackson said. "It's great to have a guy like him just take over. He does everything the right way." Longshore also has the backing of head coach Jeff Tedford, who has tutored NFL quarterbacks such as Trent Dilfer, Akili Smith, Aaron Rodgers, Joey Harrington and former Hart High of Newhall standout Kyle Boller, all of whom went on to become first-round draft picks. "I have a lot of confidence in Nate," Tedford said. "He's like having another coach on the field. He's a great leader. He's very smart and tough and he has great ability."
