UCLA Football Early Signing Period Tracker 2022
The early signing period has arrived, and the Bruins are set to secure key pieces of their future right off the bat.
UCLA football has 12 class of 2022 commits who have accepted scholarship offers to join the team, in addition to two preferred walk-ons, entering Wednesday's signing day. The early signing period will last until Friday, then the regular signing period will open from Feb. 2 to April 1.
The future of the early signing period is up in the air, with many calling for it to be moved or eliminated because of the impact it has had on the coaching carousel and transfer portal timelines over the past five years, but for now, it stands as the Bruins' first chance to lock down some key incoming freshmen.
All Bruins is keeping track of which of the commits have officially signed on, who could be getting cold feet, who's biding their time and who could be a surprise addition to the incoming class.
Of course, coach Chip Kelly has become increasingly reliant on the transfer portal to build his team as well. For our tracker on who's coming and going via the portal, take a look HERE.
