## Resource

UCLA’s wide receiver room just got a major upgrade with six new transfers, led by explosive rookie Leland Smith — a once-unranked, overlooked athlete who turned heads at Fullerton, then bounced back at San Jose State before landing at UCLA. Smith’s big size, speed, and red-zone threat could be a game-changer for QB Nico Iamaleava, even in Bob Chesney’s run-heavy system. He’s primed to be a top receiver in the Big Ten.
