The UCLA Bruins have seen a number of players enter the transfer portal. First, it was running back TJ Harden and quarterback Justyn Martin.
Another big loss on offense is star wide receiver J. Michael Sturdivant, as Matt Zenitz and Chris Hummer of 247Sports reported on Tuesday.
“UCLA standout wide receiver J. Michael Sturdivant has entered the transfer portal, @chris_hummer and I have learned for @cbssports/@247Sports. Sturdivant, a former four-star recruit who began his college career at Cal, has 123 career catches.”
Sturdivant spent the past two years at UCLA after transferring from Cal. In his one season in Berkeley, he had 65 catches for 755 yards with seven scores. In two years at UCLA, he failed to get close to those, catching a total of 54 passes for 770 yards and five scores combined.
Sturdivant is going to be one of the more enticing names in the portal given his talent and his size, 6-foot-3, and it is a tough blow for UCLA.
