One of the first big decisions on signing day didn't go UCLA's way. Mission Viejo High offensive lineman Jarrett Patterson signed with Notre Dame on Wednesday, depriving the Bruins of a prospect they hoped could help replenish their offensive line.
The Bruins time-stamped the arrival of their national letters of intent on their team website and seven came in before 7:15 a.m. PST. The first belonged to Pat Jolly, a cornerback from Lithia (Fla.) Newsome High who took advantage of being on the East Coast by sending in his letter of intent at 4:16 a.m. PST.
