Woulard is from Winter Park, Florida and will look forward to playing closer to home. According to the Tampa Bay Times, Woulard originally committed to the Bulls twice during his recruitment but ultimately decided to sign with the Bruins.
He will have to sit out the 2015 season but will be eligible to play on Saturdays starting in 2016.
Rated as a four-star recruit in high school, he had high expectations at UCLA but never found himself on the field.
Woulard will certainly have his opportunity to shine in 2016 after having this season to practice with the team and gear up for next season.
