Good list. Jones is a greyshirt according to gojoebruin

so he doesn't count against this class' total and we wouldn't see him on the field until at least the 20 season?

I'm guessing a year of physical and system development and then a very nice surprise from an under the radar kid.

From what I've read, Jones was a 2018 grad

who went to Navy, but had never signed a LOI. He decided Navy was not for him during the summer, so he is coming to UCLA as a greyshirt and is starting classes this winter. So, he will be a part of the 2019 class and be eligible to play in the fall. Please correct me if I am wrong.

I included him in the list because he wasn't included as a part of past 2018 lists. My guess is they can attribute him to the 2018 or 2019 class. Either way I believe you're right and he starts classes soon.

I got a photo sent to me. He's looking at 2019-20 guys per my sources. We could use 5-6 of their players coming down the pipe.

No idea if Chip will land him but he’s doing everything he can from what I know. I think it’s a long shot but worth the effort.

Please don’t assume everyone who reads this board know all the recruits by their initials or nicknames. Sheesh!

DJ Uiagalelei is rated by 247 Sports as the number 5 recruit in the nation for 2020. At this point, the predictions favor SC unfortunately but time will tell.

Clemson is pushing hard for DJ. U.....

but knowing his pops and uncle I bet on him staying near home. He also has an 8th grade brother who is a beast (DE/TE) and will be a freshman at Bosco next year (probably play varsity day 1).

USC or UCLA would be my guess and with Bryce Young already committed to USC we should stand a good chance. But, Dabo Sweeney is pulling out all of the stops recruiting him so don't be shocked if he picks Clemson.

You can always tell an intelligent man.
He's the one who thinks the same way you do.
I have just a couple of minor revisions, but I'll keep them to myself since I'm not into nit picking.
