With the 2021 Arizona Football season wrapping up soon, the Wildcats will soon be joined by the talented Servite duo in January.
This Arizona Football season has been a particularly rough one to follow, especially as the Wildcats are 0-7 (0-4) on the year, and own the nation’s longest active losing streak at 19 straight games.
However, fans looking for any positives and a brighter future for Arizona Football can find solace in the Wildcats’ recruiting success this year.
As it stands, the Wildcats currently own the 36th best class in the country, and also rank No. 3 in the Pac-12 according to 247Sports.
And seemingly highlighting the class are the two, stud Arizona commits and Servite High School standouts and teammates, quarterback Noah Fifita and tight end Keyan Burnett.
Well for those looking for more good news, it was announced just days ago that Burnett and Fifita will be graduating early and joining the Wildcats in January.
It is no secret that Arizona Football has been in desperate need of an infusion of talent, and bringing in two key freshmen even earlier is a big win for the Cats!
Emblematic of the Wildcats’ struggles this year has largely been because of Arizona’s deficiencies on offense and in particular at quarterback, and the hope is that bringing in a player like Noah, will help settle the Cats at quarterback.
Look, no one is saying a true freshman is going to come in, run away with the competition, and suddenly make Arizona a good football team, however, bringing in Noah even earlier and having him go through Spring Ball and learn the offense is undoubtedly a big win for Arizona.
Adding his teammate and four-star tight end Keyan Burnett just makes this all the sweeter, and we are hoping that bringing them in earlier is going to put Arizona in a better position moving forward!
