Former 4-star wide receiver Nathan Leacock has entered the NCAA transfer portal for the second time, sparking a flurry of amusing speculation among college football fans, particularly those from UCLA.
Nathan Leacock Enters Transfer Portal Again and Fans Can’t Help But Make Jokes About UCLA
Leacock, who began his collegiate career at Tennessee, transferred to Purdue in January 2025 after seeing minimal playing time with the Volunteers. At Purdue, he joined a team undergoing major changes, including a coaching staff overhaul and a mass departure of 33 players following a disastrous 1-11 season.
Despite the possibility of more playing time at Purdue, Leacock’s stint was brief. His decision to re-enter the transfer portal has sparked speculation among fans and analysts about his next destination.
UCLA supporters quickly took note of Leacock’s availability. Social media is buzzing with Bruins fans joking that he should choose Westwood as his next stop. Some have even sarcastically claimed to have “booked” his visit, showcasing the passionate and often humorous nature of college football fandom.
Some comments saying:
- “$10 bucks he goes to UCLA”
- “UCLA?”
- “he said sh*tttt now that UT has a real qb…”
As a former top-100 recruit with three years of eligibility remaining, Leacock is an appealing target for programs looking to strengthen their receiving corps. In his senior season at Millbrook High School in Raleigh, North Carolina, he posted 82 receptions for 1,703 yards and 23 touchdowns.
While his college career has yet to mirror his high school success, a new setting could provide the opportunity for Leacock to realize his full potential. Whether that setting will be UCLA or another program remains to be seen.
