The UCLA football team is in an interesting position with their receivers during spring practice. One could say the receiving corps are in “limbo” because (1) they lose five receivers to graduation and the NFL Draft and (2) they are waiting for their highly-touted freshmen receivers to get to Westwood.
Until then, WR coach Jimmie Dougherty has to work and develop with only a handful of players during spring, and among them, only three caught a pass last season: Theo Howard, Demetric Felton and Christian Pabico. Of those three, one is not like the others.
Pabico, the receiver that had a bit of break out season in 2017, is the only one that is not on scholarship.
