BOOM! UCLA already has two Bruins taken in the 2014 NFL Draft. Anthony Barr is taking his hard hitting ways to the Minnesota Vikings, while Xavier Su’a-Filo is heading out as a part of the Houston Texans organization. Exciting times for both players and a tribute to what Head Coach Jim Mora is doing in Westwood. Let us take a look and see what Twitter had to say about these two, now professional, football players.
Anthony Barr, it is tough to see you go, but we will be proud when you put on that purple jersey and start smashing people in the NFL. Go Vikings!
