Rico Flores Jr. said UCLA transfer was ‘the right decision’

Rico Flores Jr. admitted he chose wisely.

In December, Chip Kely and the UCLA Bruins football program got s massive transfer portal addition from Notre Dame WR Rico Flores Jr.  But, after Kelly left for Ohio State, it looked as if Flores would enter again and go elsewhere.

That didn’t turn out to be the case, which is good news for the Bruins. And, Flores admits it was the right decision, per James H. Williams of The Los Angeles Daily News.

“I just had to wait and see,” Flores said. “I was praying on it when that happened too … a little nervous, but in life, you are going to be nervous and you have to prepare for the worst…As of right now, it seems like it’s paid off and I made the right decision,” Flores said. “I left it all up in God’s hands and prayed on it very hard and shoot I’m here at UCLA and proud to be a Bruin.”

Flores is expected to be a big piece of the revamped UCLA offense with Eric Bieniemy running the offense.
