Here is a Bruinsball.com exclusive interview with 4-star safety, Hatari Byrd following UCLA's Junior Day.
How was UCLA Junior Day?
Hatari Byrd: It was nice. I liked the defensive coaches. The coaches were chill.
What coaches did you talk to most?
Hatari Byrd: The Head Coach, Coach Mora, I talked to him most of the trip. I talked to the DB coach a lot too.
What did they tell you about why you should like UCLA?
Hatari Byrd: They have a lot of NFL coaches now at UCLA. That’s what they were talking about.
Did UCLA make you’re top list of schools?
Hatari Byrd: Yeah. I would say my top 3 schools right now are Notre Dame… Notre Dame is my top school, and Cal is my top school, but I mean I like [UCLA’s] coaches and their facilities. They’re my top 3 right now.
How were the new jerseys UCLA displayed?
Hatari Byrd: I liked them. I liked them a lot.
What is you’re timetable for you’re decision?
Hatari Byrd: I might commit early in the summer, but as of right now I’m just waiting, going with the flow, to see what offers come in.
Does it affect you’re recruitment knowing that Coach Mora was a Defensive Backs’ Coach in the NFL?
Hatari Byrd: Yeah, it makes me think about it more. Because at UCLA, they feel like they’re all NFL defensive coaches.
