UCLA Football: Bruins Eyeing a Stellar Performance on Saturday in Front of Key Recruits

The team will look to shine in front of some potential Bruins

The UCLA Bruins are set to take on the Colorado Buffaloes in what is sure to be an exciting Week 9 matchup. 

A lot is at stake for the Bruins as they still have a legit shot at a Pac-12 title appearance, and a win on Saturday could make closely make that reality. It'll be a great measuring stick against a great offense, but it will also be a chance for them to impress some potential Bruins. 

According to Bruins insider Tracy McDannald, three important recruits will be at hand at the Rose Bowl. 

While that may be true for the current roster, the game will also serve as the biggest recruiting weekend at home this season. Among the prominent sought-after prospects expected to be in attendance are 2025 four-star quarterback George MacIntyre, 2025 four-star linebacker Weston Port and 2026 receiver Madden Williams.

These three potential Bruins could greatly boost the upcoming recruiting class. 

Let's take a bit of a dive into these young men. 

George MacIntyre is a four-star quarterback from the 2025 class hailing from Brentwood Academy in Tennesee. He is ranked 24th in his class, number one in his state, and number three in his position. MacIntyre could indeed be the QB of the future if all goes well. 

Western Port is a linebacker who stands at 6'1, 215 pounds from San Juan Capistrano, CA. He is a three-star recruit who is ranked 29th in his position and 27th in the state. Port has 33 total offers from big-name schools, with the UCLA offer coming back in March 2023. 

Lastly, Madden Williams. Williams hails from St. John Bosco and is from the class of 2026. He is also highly touted, with over 15 schools inserted in the sophomore athlete. Williams isn't ranked at the moment, but with great size and talent, he will surely be ranked high. 

A lot will ride on this game, and UCLA is sure to impress in front of their home crowd and recruits.
