With Deshun Murrell in, UCLA welcomes 16 on Signing Day
The UCLA Bruins Early Signing Day class of 2021 got a big boost a day late when Deshun Murrell recommitted to the Bruins following a brief pledge to Penn State.
After committing in the summer but decommitting in November, Murrell pledged and signed his letter of intent with the Bruins after all.
“It was a tough — very tough decision,” said Murrell. “I did go back and forth between UCLA and Penn State, and Penn State is a great program, but I feel like UCLA is trending, that they will be on the rise, and the degree I can get there with the networking really put them over the top.
