UCLA release on Brandon Willis

| | Comments (7) |

From UCLA:

Brandon Willis, a 6-3, 255-pound freshman defensive tackle from Duncan, SC, is now a member of the UCLA football program.

Willis has been admitted to school and has signed a statement of intent to enroll. He will join the team immediately and will redshirt this season due to his transfer from the University of North Carolina. He will have four years of eligibility remaining.

"We are very excited about Brandon joining our program," said UCLA head football coach Rick Neuheisel. "We thought the world of him a year ago as a high school senior and we feel he will be a tremendous asset to our defensive front."

Hmmm....Looks like the floodgates are opening up for our Bruins and the 2011 class!!! Hopefully, Hundley will add to the good news!

The best news is that he isn't 255 lbs now. He is over 280 and should be a solid 285-290 lbs by next season. He will move right into the 2-deep and should have a solid career at UCLA. He also has the motivation of having bought into LK's song and dance at Tennessee only to see him leave for $C, then committing to NC, only to find that he wanted to play for UCLA after all.
