Former Appalachian State WR Kaedin Robinson signs with UCLA

Former Appalachian State wide receiver Kaedin Robinson signed with UCLA out of the NCAA transfer portal, On3 has learned.

This past season, Robinson finished with 53 catches for 840 yards, two touchdowns and 15.8 yards per catch. After starting his career at UCF in 2021, he played the last three seasons at App State and has career totals of 148 catches, 2,194 yards, 15 touchdowns and 14.8 yards per catch.

As a member of the Class of 2021, Robinson was a three-star recruit out of Asheville (N.C.) Christ School (N.Y.), according to the On3 Industry Ranking, a weighted average that utilizes all four major recruiting media companies. He was the No. 2 overall prospect in the state, the No. 7 wide receiver in the class and the No. 35 overall prospect in the class.

Kaedin Robinson latest App State player to UCLA

Not only is Robinson going west to play for UCLA, his teammate, QB Joey Aguilar, is joining him. Aguilar threw for more than 3,000 yards in both years at Appalachian State, and his 3,003 yards ranked as the highest total in the Sun Belt.

That came after an impressive 2023 campaign in which he threw for 3,757 yards and 23 touchdowns in 14 games as the Mountaineers finished 9-5 and played in the Sun Belt Championship.

Before arriving at Appalachian State, Aguilar played two years at the JUCO level at Diablo Valley College. His decision to enter the portal came after the NCAA granted a waiver to former JUCO players with eligibility remaining in 2025, and that opened the door for him to play one more season.

Joey Aguilar was the No. 129 overall player to hit the open market in the cycle, according to the On3 Industry Transfer Rankings. He was also the No. 12-ranked quarterback to enter the portal after the window opened Dec. 9.
