No More De-commitments to the 2017 Recruiting Class!

So 2016 wasn’t exactly Arizona’s year for football. However, perhaps the silver lining was the season-ending throttling of rival ASU that knocked them out of post-season play, as well as the good recruiting class we had. Well, that was until recently.

Following the departure of defensive coach Donte Williams, it was to be expected Arizona would have a player or two drops off. Indeed the risk you run when you have such a large class committed so early, so naturally, you may lose a recruit or two, but hopefully no more!

After a bit of shuffling on the staff, Arizona has their replacement coach, and things still look pretty positive in this class. The Wildcats have to ability to pull at least a couple more nice pieces to the class as we highlighted before, and that would certainly be a strong finish should Arizona receive a commitment or two.

As it stands, the Wildcats have the 25th ranked class according to Scout, and features notable recruits like; Joshua Brown, Nathan Tilford and Braxton Burmeister, among many others!

So for this holiday season, our wish is to have a strong recruiting class, and please, NO MORE DE-COMMITS!
