Looks like their sources are saying that its UCLA. Article does imply that its not where the family wants him to go.

NOLA.com Implies Its UCLA for Willis

If Willis does indeed announce for UCLA, do not expect the LSU coaches to back off. He has been a priority for quite some time and the need for another defensive back is too great to move on.


So theres a chance...

Was he blown away by UCLA's incredible early 90's facilities?

You can't bring a grill on a plane, man.

Hey, we have the cash...let's just have Stud buy one after he lands out west. Right?

I'm sure he was blown away by the fact that it's closer to home.

Hopefully he has the same view as Tim Williams. Maybe he wants a change of scenery. I realize Louisiana is much further than Az to Ca.

Did TW really get a change of scenery? IMO, he either didn't want to come play for LSU, or we stopped recruiting him. I think it's the first option. Him choosing Bama, however, is a total slap in the face for us, make no mistake about that.

UCLA and Bama are completely different, anyway. I don't like that TW went to Bama, but I can't say it isn't a sound choice. I wouldn't call UCLA a sound choice, and that's even if they weren't coming apart from the top down currently.

We stopped recruiting him when it was evident he wanted out of BR. Hell, his high school is on campus. I understand wanting something new.

It's hard to argue living in Los Angeles as an 18-22 year old
