As a big target for DTR, Bobo is also bringing toughness and leadership to the receivers’ room.
LOS ANGELES — During UCLA’s spring showcase last Saturday, coach Chip Kelly put on the headset live on the Pac-12 Network and made it pretty clear: Don’t be surprised if Jake Bobo is atop his wide receiver depth chart come fall.
Bobo had a career year last season at Duke with 74 receptions for 794 yards, which ranked ninth in the ACC. UCLA hopes Bobo can serve as a reliable third down option, a safety valve of sorts. Bobo was one of UCLA’s two skilled wide receiver pick-ups from the transfer portal, with Titus Mokiao-Atimalala from UCF also coming over and impressing the coaching staff right away.
“But how much they’ve added in the room in terms of culture, in terms of work ethic, things like that — we’re really lucky to have them. I think they add to what is going to be a really good group.” “You talk about some of these quarterback-receiver duos — whether that’s professionally or in college sports — there’s a relationship off the field there and that comes with time,” Bobo said. ”So that’s what we’ll do this summer and the rest of this spring and into the fall.”
