The 15th in a daily series of Q&A’s with the 2012 signing class.

Eric Judge is a 6-foot-1, 190-pound wide receiver from San Diego, Calif. He comes to San Diego State after playing at San Diego High School, where he excelled at both wide receiver and defensive back. A former track runner, Judge has a good combination of size and speed, and has the potential to be a big playmaker for the Aztecs. In 2010, he ran the 100-meter in 10.8 seconds.

Judge will likely redshirt in 2012, but will be competing for playing time by the 2013 season. He will have the opportunity to learn from wide receivers coach LeCharls McDaniel, who has a knack for developing NFL prospects at receiver. Judge will wear No. 81 for the Aztecs.
