BOOM! It was announced today that the UCLA football program got a big commitment from 3-star Florida running back, T.J. Simmons. Simmons is a 5’11’, 200 lbs. stud out of Lakeland Christian School in Lakeland, Florida, who is the 61st ranked RB in the nation. This is a great get for UCLA Football recruiting.

Landing FL RB T.J Simmons is big for #UCLA, looked great at Bruins Camp last week, showed nice combination of size, speed, hands and wiggle

Simmons is the seventh player to commit to the Bruins for their 2015 recruiting class and second RB behind Fresno, California’s Bolu Olorunfunmi. Despite only having a few commits for next season, UCLA is already loaded with playmakers like four-stars WR L.J. Reed, OG Tevita Halalilo and five-stars TE Alize Jones and QB Josh Rosen. Look for UCLA to have the #BruinRevolution continue to roll in on the recruiting trail before next year’s National Signing Day.

Check out a few of Simmons’ sweet moves…

Go Bruins!
