Leland Smith & Bob Chesney’s New Chapter | UCLA Bruins Football News
UCLA football is turning a new page with Bob Chesney as their fourth head coach since 2023, and wide receiver Leland Smith—also on his fourth college coaching change—is back in the Big Ten to help rebuild the program. A six-foot-four playmaker who just set career highs at San Jose State, Smith was recruited by Chesney’s staff while they were at James Madison and was drawn to Chesney’s winning pedigree and authentic leadership. Smith is already studying Chesney’s past offenses and feels a strong connection to the team. Beyond football, Smith’s NIL deal with World’s Finest Chocolate holds deep personal meaning—he once sold the same chocolate to fund his youth choir in Houston, lessons in perseverance and entrepreneurship he now hopes to pass on to other students.
