Taking a look at this list, it is very offensive-line heavy. Arizona understands that it needs to improve its depth and talent up front.

Another trait that stands out with these recruits is their national ranking. Almost all of them are well within the Top 1,000. That’s even more so the case on defense (which we will get to in another article).

Arizona is being extremely aggressive so far in the 2022 class and it could work out in their favorite when all is said and done.
