UCLA Bruins graduate transfer tackle Justin Murphy will be back for another season. That’s because the NCAA has granted his petition for a sixth year of eligibility, according to Murphy’s Twitter account.
I am extremely grateful to the @NCAA for granting me a 6th year of eligibility!
None of this could've been possible if it weren't for the amazing job done at @UCLACompliance. Thank you for everything y'all do over there, it doesn't go unnoticed!— Justin Murphy (@JMurphy_73) December 10, 2018This is certainly a shot to the arm for the UCLA offensive line which flourished this past season and Murphy’s leadership was one of the reasons the line played as well as it did.
