Just saw that Sam McDonald and Mia Barnett are transferring out of Alabama and Virginia respectively to run for UCLA. I know there's been chatter here about the lack of high school signees to this point. Maybe this is the approach instead...

They are both already at UCLA running indoor.

I'm not sure this is an intentional approach. The fans of Brosnan have said he will be a really good recruiter with his resume and personality. I know it's early, but the results so far have not been impressive no matter how you look at it.
He has one announced men's recruit who is far from a top recruit. On the women's side, he has one solid high school recruit and three transfers. One transfer is very good, one was good in high school, but struggled in cross at Alabama and the other is a non factor. All three transfers had close ties to Brosnan in high school, with two running for Newbury Park and the other from the area whose whacky father is buddies with Brosnan. He's not winning recruiting battles from those he competes with like Cal Poly and certainly not with the top programs who his fans claimed he would be competing with.
Probably waiting on scholarships to open up.
