JUCO OL Cade Parrish decommits from Arizona Football
Just as the Arizona Football team was building momentum on the recruiting trail, the Wildcats suffered a minor set back as JUCO OL Cade Parrish de-committed on Thursday evening.
Recruiting is always about ebbs and flows, and if you’re Arizona Football, that is surely the case as the Wildcats have seen their fair share of recruiting wins and losses over the years. Their most recent loss being the de-commitment of Junior College offensive lineman, Cade Parrish.
Taking to social media on Thursday to announce his decision, the three-star Snow College lineman has decided to re-open his recruitment, this just months after he committed to Arizona back in August.

Citing recent eligibility changes in the NJCAA, Cade felt it was in his best interest to de-commit and consider all his options.
Perhaps he is hoping for bigger offers as he now has the option to potentially return to Snow for another year and impress more schools? While I can’t verify if that is indeed the case, you cannot deny that that may certainly be a feasible scenario here.
And well, with offers from Arizona, Hawaii, and San Jose State among others, it seems that is very possible.
So with Cade now de-committed, Arizona has just two offensive line commitments in the class of 2021, and now just two junior college commitments.
While the news is unfortunate, it is not like this is uncommon for other schools, and in this case, specifically Arizona.
The Wildcats have to face this kind of stuff every year and let’s be realistic here, it’s not like Arizona is a destination type of place compared to some other top-level programs out there.
For Kevin Sumlin and the Wildcats, now their focus turns in finalizing the recruiting class for 2021, and with a decent number of offered players still available, perhaps the Wildcats can find a solid replacement for Cade.
