UCLA lands transfer portal commitment from former FCS defensive end Jack Heimlicher
UCLA has landed one of the top transfer portal prospects in former Penn defensive end Jack Heimlicher, who announced his commitment Tuesday night on social media. A two-year starter, he earned an All-Ivy League honorable mention award in 2021 before leading the conference in sacks in 2022.
“I could not be more excited to commit to Coach Kellt and Coach Malloe to attend UCLA and continue this journey as a Bruin,” he posted.
