Game Day Availability Reports list players as available, game time decision, or out. The Big XII website describes Game Time Decision as "Will dress for the game and be available to play" and out as "Not dressing or available for the game."
Game Time Decision is defined by the Big XII as "Coaches and/or medical personnel need to evaluate the student-athlete during pre-game warm-ups before deciding whether they can participate in the game."
Initial Players Availability Reports each week are released at 9 PM Central Time three days before games are played. All of the remaining Arizona games are on Saturday, except the final game of the regular season at Arizona State on November 28.
