The commitment of top-ranked quarterback prospect Josh Rosen during last year’s recruiting cycle gave UCLA a significant boost.
With the five-star talent in the fold, the Bruins’ class was ranked as high as No.9 by some recruiting services.
This year, the strong-armed passer is again paying dividends.
Heading into signing day Wednesday, UCLA is on the cusp of locking up a national top-10 class, spearheaded by a crop of receivers drawn by the opportunity to catch passes from Rosen. The Pac-12 offensive freshman of the year threw for 3,670 yards and 23 touchdowns in his first season as a starter.
