Brandon Tuliaupupu: UCLA



 Defensive/Offensive Tackle, Claremont, CA (Claremont High).
Rivals: 3 star, #52 DT, #90 California; Scout: 3 star, #101 DT
Continuing on in the trenches, Brandon was one of several late gets for Neu, with the 3-star tackle switching his commitment from Washington State to UCLA on the day before National Signing Day. While the coaching staff has been onto Brandon for quite a while, Neu held off on offering him due to academic concerns. After becoming convinced that he could succeed academically at UCLA, he received a scholarship offer just before signing day.
Rated as the 90th-best California recruit by rivals.com and rated as a defensive tackle by the recruiting services; while Neuheisel did describe him as a defensive tackle in the presser, there is a chance that he gets handed over to Coach Palic to reinforce the offensive line - which fits into the late rush in recruiting offensive linemen by the football staff.
