  06/09/21 - DT Jay ToiaSr/2025, Transfer

  Jay Toia is headed across town, going from USC to UCLA to make his college debut. For the Trojans, consider the promising freshman defensive tackle's defection a pandemic misfortune. Toia committed to USC without making any on-campus visits during the health crisis, limiting his ability to gather information about his college destination. After waffling on his decision, the four-star prospect from Simi Valley Grace Brethren High picked the Trojans and participated in spring practice … before having some regrets. The 6-foot-3, 325-pound Toia solved that issue in recent weeks after announcing his transfer from USC, visiting Michigan and UCLA. Working in the Bruins' favor was that Johnny Nansen, the defensive line coach who recruited him to USC, now holds that same post at UCLA.

Zach Charbonnet and Jordan Genmark Heath, transfers from Michigan and Notre Dame, have boosted UCLA and aim to help the Bruins 'shock the Pac-12. Toia impressed USC coaches in spring practice, putting himself in position to contribute as a freshman. During the spring, Trojans coach Clay Helton called Toia "a mountain of a man" with the "head of an elephant." "You're talking about a 300-pound man that, just, you have to double team him," Helton said at the time. "If you single him, it's a hard day." - Los Angeles Times
