With the craziness of National Signing Day two weeks in the past, UCLA football’s 2013 recruiting class sits squarely among the nation’s elite in Jim Mora’s second season at the helm.

The Bruins’ group of signees is ranked No. 5 in the country by Scout and No. 8 by Rivals, easily making this the strongest class to come to Westwood in quite some time. And in honor of Coach Mora’s stunning achievement, Go Joe Bruin is going to delve deep into the bowels of the internet to find the nitty-gritty on each of these highly ranked recruits.

So without further ado, let’s take a look at UCLA’s most-heralded 2013 recruit, 4-star defensive back Priest Willis.
