Having a bit of fun with another All-Time Rankings list, I rank the Top 5 Greatest Athletes to ever come out of the University of Arizona.

We may be in the dead of Summer but that doesn't mean we can't have a little fun putting together another All-Time Rankings list.

Thanks to a little bit of inspiration from the "West Coast College Sports Guy" as he is known on X (formerly Twitter), he posed an interesting question the other day that stated, "Who do you consider the greatest athlete to ever compete for the University of Arizona?"

It is a bit of a loaded question as so many fans are going to have differing opinions, and there are so many celebrated and well-achieved athletes that is hard to not create a list of 20+ athletes. However, I did my best to narrow down MY LIST of Top 5 athletes, even including a few honorable mentions. 

With that said, here is what I have come up with, and my reasoning for each respective rankings, so here we go!
