The UCLA Bruins football program suffered a tough blow by losing defensive star Jay Toia. But, DeShaun Foster is working hard at other positions of need, including running back.
The Bruins have now reached out to Louisville transfer Peny Boone, and he has heard from a lot of other schools.
Here are a list of the schools Boone has heard from, per Marshall Levenson of Rivals: Ole Miss, Washington, Tennessee, Miami, Oklahoma State, UCLA, Nebraska, UNC, Colorado, Georgia Tech, Wisconsin, Western Kentucky, Virginia Tech, Utah, Michigan State, Oregon State, Arizona, Kentucky, USF, and UCF.
Boone was the MAC Offensive Player of the Year at Toledo and ran for 1,400 yards and 15 scores. he then landed at Louisville initially in the portal before deciding to enter again in a bit of a surprising turn of events. Boone also was at Maryland previously.
Boone is slated to take a visit to Ole Miss and Washington already, but UClA showing interest in him shows their desire to add a running back. The Bruins also expressed interest in Ohio State RB transfer Dallan Hayden.
