Amid the current player’s demanding protection upon their return to campus, the UCLA Bruins recruiting class for 2021 got a big boost when they received their latest pledge. Four-star offensive tackle, and a consensus top-30 tackle prospect in the country, Thomas Cole made it official by announcing his commitment to UCLA on Twitter.
Cole becomes commitment No. 10 for the Bruins and leapfrogs Cal in the process in terms of recruiting rankings in the Pac-12. The Bruins now have the conference’s fourth-best recruiting class, jumping Cal but staying behind Washington who moved up from fifth to third over the weekend.
