Stinson caught up with UCLA Bruins On SI following his commitment so he could detail why he made this decision.

"Definitely culture and how personal it is," the Vero Beach High School star confirmed to UCLA Bruins On SI when detailing why he committed to the UCLA Bruins.

He had the chance to talk with many of the coaches, but a few coaches in specific helped him make this decision.

"The receiver coaches and offensive coordinator helped me make this decision," Stinson said.

The Bruins have shown the talent recruit something that helped him make this decision. This not only helped him with the decision, but made him feel good about his talent as would anyone in this position.

"I feel truly honored for them to believe in me."

The Bruins commit was slated to visit the Michigan State Spartans this upcoming weekend. Will he take that visit?

"I don’t plan on taking any other visits; I have canceled all of the remaining visits that I had."
