UCLA Bruins - English
June has been an active month for recruitment teams to secure top-tier talent for NCAA programs. Several young athletes had already verbally committed to certain universities, poised to showcase their budding skills on the college football stage. Yet, along the way, something shifted, steering them away from their original destinations.
That’s exactly what happened with a defensive back who had previously committed to the team that legendary coach Bill Belichick is beginning to shape at Carolina. How does a rising star step away from a potentially formative mentor and future NFL pipeline?

The answer is simple: discovering programs that offer a deeper sense of unity and stronger alignment with the head coach’s philosophy. UCLA is currently building a defensive backfield that could position them as a serious contender next season.
Justin Lewis brings muscle to the Bruins’ defense
Under the leadership of DeShaun Foster, UCLA is crafting a smarter, more cohesive, and fiercely aggressive secondary unit that has already impressed during spring training sessions. In the upcoming B1G season, the Bruins are emerging as a legitimate threat in their division. To stoke the fire even further, incoming recruit Justin Lewis made his feelings clear after a recent visit to Westwood.
“The visit was great, the love was felt all weekend,” said Lewis, who was accompanied by his father, mother, and brother. He described a warm, family-like atmosphere and a strong connection with the coaching staff that made his visit truly memorable.
“The best part was really getting to know everyone and the family atmosphere that they bring with every coach, and the excitement on how they would use me and what they see for me going forward,” Lewis added. His family left just as impressed. “(My family) loved the outlook and how the plan was for me and how I could impact on and off the field. It was a win-win for them.”
A valuable encounter with first- and second-year players
Lewis also had the chance to connect with some of the Bruins’ younger players, who gave him a firsthand glimpse into the team culture, the city, and the overall environment at UCLA. Jack Pedersen and Karson Gordon were instrumental in showing him around and sharing their experiences. “It was good having all of their perspectives because… seeing the different ways they approach things was interesting,” he said.
Can DeShaun Foster bring the Bruins back to national relevance?
With the commitment of Anthony Jones-one of the top defensive talents in the state-UCLA’s defense is expected to climb the national rankings. Additionally, the arrival of quarterback Nico Lamaleva from Tennessee brings needed balance to the offensive side, potentially giving the Bruins a well-rounded squad.
The roster DeShaun Foster has assembled is already turning heads and raising expectations. A major challenge lies ahead, but for UCLA fans, the hope is that this bold new era becomes a concrete, winning reality.
