No. 2 Michael Eletise (RS Freshman)

The big man from the big island, Michael Eletise was one of the crowning jewels in the class of 2016.  Fast forward a redshirt year later, and now is the time to shine. He’s a workaholic and is easily one of the most talented linemen on the roster.

He possesses great size and athleticism, and with the potential to come in and provide more depth to the offensive line.

It’s no secret Arizona has a highly potent offense, and the offensive linemen are an integral part in that. Whether it’s opening running lanes, and providing time for the quarterbacks to throw, they help this offense go.

Arizona saw a few injuries at the position last season, and while Eletise is not on the depth chart to start as of this moment, the potential is there for him to see plenty of playing time.

Linemen are often rotated on this team, and with the few exceptions like Jacob Alsadek and Nathan Eldridge, the opportunity is there for Eletise, and we imagine seeing him a lot in 2017!
