We are down to 35 days – 5 weeks – until the start of the UCLA Bruins 2024 football season. We cannot wait for Saturday College Football, especially when the Bruins are in action.
Today, we celebrate the lone 35 on the Bruins roster for the 2024 season. That is Devanti Dillard. Dillard is a 6’0, 200lbs redshirt senior out of Fontana California. Dillard attended Etiwanda High School.
Dilliard has been with the UCLA Bruins since 2020 season. He only saw two games in 2021 and then two more in 2022. He was named to the Pac-12 Fall Academic Honor Roll during the 2021-2022 season.
Here is a look at a spectacular play by Dillard during the spring game:

Dillard is going to have some work to do in the receiving room. Logan Loya, Rico, Florida Jr and Michael J. Sturvidant seem to have the upper hand heading into the summer. Ezavier Staples and Kwzai Gilmer are a couple other guys looking for a chance.
