Sonoran Hot Reads (6/14)

Arizona sports are officially over :(

And so begins the couple months of summer, after Track and Field wrapped up on Saturday evening. Slow day all around, but here are some things you should read:

Football

- Gabe took a look at the QB situation in case Anu Solomon goes down for some reason

- Several offers went out. Add Lorenzo Burns, Stephen Carr, and Anthony Hines to the list of Arizona targets. Carr is a current USC commit at running back.

- Need a pick-me-up? How about Chuck Cecil?

Need proof that anything can happen in the Territorial Cup? Chuck Cecil will show you proof. #pac12summer https://t.co/ezsN5tBtbD
