UCLA Bruins quarterback Nico Iamaleava is entering his third collegiate season after spending his first two years with the Tennessee Vols. Iamaleava, a former five-star recruit, transferred to UCLA earlier this spring.

College football’s future wore a baby blue suit, a gold pin that said “UCLA” and a pair of diamond-encrusted hoop earrings.

UCLA bringing in Iamaleava, and the situation with transfer wideout Kaedin Robinson — who made public record his $500,000 NIL deal in an effort to successfully sue the NCAA for eligibility this season — signals that the Bruins, who went 3-6 in league play in their first year in the Big Ten, are now in the game.
