Day One of UCLA fall camp is in the books and according to head coach Jim Mora after practice, it was confirmed that defensive lineman Kylie Fitts will transfer from UCLA. The former four-star defensive end, who already had a long road getting to Westwood, had only played one season under Mora.
As far as injuries go, there were two notable players, wide receiver Mossi Johnson and middle linebacker Zach Whitley, that were a bit dinged up during Day One practice. The extent of the injuries are not known so far.
As for line-up changes, there were some interesting combos one the first day of practice.
As for who is here: Lucien, fuller and Payton working as first team receivers, as they did for the majority of spring ball

Two freshmen who seem to have clear paths to playing time: Matt Dickerson and Jaleel Wadood. Both on 2nd team D to start today.

Priest Willis was getting a lot of chances with UCLA's second team DBs today. He looked better.
