Markofski will take his official visit to Arizona with four-star WR Jai Jones and three-star prospects, interior offensive lineman Ian Aloisio and linebacker Bryce Breeden. Arizona has 14 prospects scheduled for official visits on the other three weekends in May and June.
Arizona set a great foundation for the future by signing a program record seven blue-chip (four or five star) prospects in the 2026 class. Tight end is a position of need with Illinois transfer Cole Rusk having one season of eligibility remaining in 2026.
