  04/20/20 - RB Joshua KelleyrSr/2020, UCLA

  Joshua Kelley received just one offer to play collegiate football coming out of Eastside High in Lancaster. After two seasons for UC Davis, he transferred as a walk-on to UCLA in 2017. Due to NCAA transfer rules, he sat out that first year in Westwood, but immediately made an impact on the team as part of its scouting corps. His positive influence, on not only the players but the program as a whole, earned him a scholarship before the start of the 2018 season. Kelley had yet to play a game as a Bruin, but his hard work had spoken for itself. It wasn't long into the season before he'd proved his worth. With six 100-yard rushing games, and 1,243 total yards, Kelley ran for the 10th-most yards in a single-season in school history. His 289-yard performance against USC was the most in the rivalry by a running back from either team.

His 113.0 yards per game average ranked him No. 4 in the Pac-12 and No. 8 in the NCAA. And even more telling, his team awarded him MVP honors for his first season in at UCLA. "Most people, when they first meet him, they're like, 'Is this guy for real?' And he is," UCLA coach Chip Kelly said. "He's like that every single day. He's just got a great attitude and you're excited to be around him." Kelley returned to UCLA for a final year in 2019 and continued to set record after record in becoming the Bruins' star running back. Not only did he become the eighth running back in UCLA history to record back-to-back 1,000-yard rushing seasons, but he also received the team's MVP honors for the second consecutive year. He ended his Bruin career ranked 14th on the school's all-time rushing list with 2,303 yards. - Orange County Register
