By Ryan Kay
UCLA football recruiting has undergone a significant shift under head coach DeShaun Foster compared to the previous coach Chip Kelly.
More Focus and Engagement under Foster.
- Foster is actively offering scholarships to a much larger number of recruits, especially underclassmen. This contrasts with Chip Kelly's coach's strategy.
- There's a renewed emphasis on campus visits and events like "Friday Night Lights" to showcase UCLA to potential players.
- The aim is to create a more welcoming and inclusive atmosphere for recruits, particularly those from Los Angeles seems to be a primary focus under Foster.
Early Signs of Success on the recruiting trail since Foster took over.
- This approach seems to be working. There's a positive buzz around UCLA's recruiting efforts, with recruits raving about their visits.
- Foster has already secured commitments from some high-profile players, including four-star running back Karson Cox.
Looking Ahead:
- It's still early in Foster's tenure, but the initial signs are promising.
- The increased focus on recruiting could help UCLA return to its days of consistently bringing in top-ranked recruiting classes similar to what USC is doing down the road..
