No. 3 – A historic senior season by Khalil Tate

The 2018 season was a bit of an underwhelming one for the Arizona Football team. Coming in with quite the lofty hype and expectations, many had hoped for big things from Khalil Tate and newly hired head coach Kevin Sumlin.

The junior still put together a solid season, but the lack of his running threat, and the Wildcats  having a losing season left many fans disillusioned and mixed about the results.

Fortunately, Tate is coming back for his senior season with a great chance to rebound and improve as a player and that’s a good thing for Arizona!

Make no mistake, the Wildcats are better with him than that would be without him in 2019! Him playing still doesn’t change the fact he is a tremendous athlete with good upside.

That’s why in 2019, I am wishing for a historic senior season by Tate, helping to lead the Wildcats back to the promised land of postseason play!
