Dante Lovett Brings Fire to UCLA Defense

UCLA’s defense is heating up with a major secondary upgrade, led by standout transfer Dante Lovett from Virginia Tech. Lovett, who’s got two years left and a proven track record including his first interception in a bowl game, jumped ship after his head coach was fired — but saw UCLA’s new coaching staff as the perfect fit. Alongside fellow transfers Osiris Gilbert and Jhase McMillan, plus returning star Scooter Jackson, the Bruins are poised to turn things around after a brutal 2023 season. Lovett’s athleticism and physicality make him a top contender for a starting spot — and if he delivers, UCLA could be headed back to national relevance.
