2026 TE Camden Jensen commits to UCLA

Littleton (Colo.) Heritage three-star tight end Camden Jensen has committed to UCLA, he announced on Sunday evening.

He chose the Bruins over Florida, Nebraska and Missouri, among others.

Jensen is the No. 410 overall prospect and No. 18 tight end in the 2026 cycle, according to the On3 Industry Ranking, a weighted average that utilizes all four major recruiting media companies. He’s also the No. 3 player in Colorado.

The 6-foot-7, 220-pounder is in the boat for head coach DeShaun Foster and the Bruins following an official visit over the weekend. Despite having other OVs on the docket next month, Jensen is locking in with the West Coast Big Ten program. TEs coach Jerry Neuheisel led the charge for UCLA.

“I really like coach Jerry Neuheisel. He’s done a good job. He recruits me well,” Jensen told On3’s Chad Simmons back in January. “I like talking to him. He came out to see me in the spring and watched me work out. We talked for a while. Coach Neuheisel reaches out to my parents all the time and he tells them, ‘We really need to get him up here. He needs to be up here. He needs to check this place out.’ That draws my attention.”

Bruins add big member to 2026 class

With Jensen now in the fold, the Bruins have eight commits in a class that now ranks No. 23 in the nation, according to the On3 Industry Team Recruiting Rankings.

On Sept. 30, Provo (Utah) Timpview twin wide receivers Jaron and Kennan Pula each committed. Jaron is a four-star and the highest-ranked commit in the class, checking in as the No. 354 overall recruit. Kennan, a three-star, is the No. 422 prospect in the nation.

The Pula brothers are two of four receivers in the class already. Stockton (Calif.) St. Mary’s three-star Kenneth Moore and Irvine (Calif.) Santa Margarita Catholic three-star Jonah Smith are also in the fold.

Irvine (Calif.) Crean Lutheran three-star defensive lineman Anthony Jones and Medina (Tenn.) South Gibson three-star DL Yahya Gaad are other new additions to the class following commitments earlier this week. Gaad is a former SMU commit.

“It is a great fit for me,” Jones told On3’s Chad Simmons about his decision. “I was at UCLA a few weeks ago and I love it up there. Their staff has been hard on me for a while and it is really like home for me there. I have known multiple coaches on that staff for years. They have recruited me for years and they just make it feel natural for me to be there.”

Bellflower (Calif.) St. John Bosco linebacker Matthew Muasau rounds out the pledge list to date. It also now ranks No. 8 in the Big Ten, ahead of Michigan, Indiana, Minnesota, Illinois, Wisconsin and others.
