UCLA Football landed its quarterback of the future tonight when 4-star QB Dorian Thompson-Robinson from Bishop Gorman HS in Las Vegas committed to the Bruins.
Thompson-Robinson had narrowed his choice down to UCLA and Michigan. According to BruinReportOnline, UCLA had been the leader to land Thompson-Robinson after he attended UCLA’s football camp last year and UCLA solidified the commitment when Jedd Fisch became the offensive coordinator for the Bruins earlier this year because Fisch had been the coach recruiting him for Michigan.
Thompson-Robinson made his decision official when he sent out this tweet:
University of California, Los Angeles.
