Sonoran Hot Reads: Trey Griffey heading to the East-West Shrine Game

And Paul Magloire will be at the Tropical Bowl

Famous son Trey Griffey never really put up huge numbers for the Arizona Wildcats (1.8 catches and 28.2 yards per game in his career), but his size (6-foot-3, 209 pounds) is going to get him some attention from the NFL as offseason workouts begin in earnest. This is shown by Griffey’s invitation to the East-West Shrine Game. You will be able to watch this game on January 21st at 1 PM MT

- Paul Magloire Jr. got invited to something called the Tropical Bowl. That game happens on January 15th, and here are a few other guys that are taking part. Magloire also received a 5th round grade from The Draftster

- A couple of notable things are happening with recruiting offers. Arizona offered another kicker, and three-star linebacker Colin Schooler is set to visit Tucson in January. Check Gabe’s timeline for more on them

- It’s kind of tough to compare, but UTSA has already sold more tickets to the New Mexico Bowl than Arizona did

- The Wildcats were bad this year, but ESPN has the QB group as the 8th-best in the conference. Utah, Stanford, ASU, and OSU were worse

- You have to read some of these emails from Oregon fans as they were looking for a new head coach

- It appears Scooby Wright will be playing for the Cardinals this weekend

Basketball

- The Wildcats moved up to 19th in the polls

- A Western Michigan basketball player was arrested and charged with murder

- Luke Walton got ejected...and cursed...a lot

Looks like Luke Walton might need that @KGArea21 cuss button (NSFW) http://pic.twitter.com/19pG5w9l2w
