Arizona’s Football Class Gets Interesting Ranking on Signing Day

In this story:
While it's a much less publicized and exciting day than it used to be, Wednesday was the offical February national signing day across college football. Most schools already had their recruiting classes close to finalized after the December signing period, but now many more uncomitted prospects will be announcing their decisions.
Arizona did not announce any additional high school commitments on Wednesday but did add Louisville punter Carter Schwartz as a transfer. A few other players with offers from the Wildcats remain unsigned, national recruting services indiate that those players will likely be heading elsewhere.

Arizona's Top Signees
Four-star wide receiver RJ Mosley (Pittsburg, CA) leads the Arizona recruiting class. He's a big-bodied wideout at 6-foot-3, 180 lbs, and ranks as the No. 136 player nationally, No. 16 in California, and the No. 19 overall wide receiver. He's also a track athlete, and that rare vlend of size and speed bodes well for his pro potential.

Wide Receiver RJ Mosley
Cornerback Xaier Hiler
Offensive lineman Malachi Joyner
Tight end Henry Gabalis
Have all been upgraded to four-stars. Arizona now has five four-star commitments
Tight end Henry Gasalis is another player whose ratings vary but is squarely in the top 500. 247Sports gives him his most favorable ranking as the No. 433 player in the country and No. 23 tight end. A Washington native, he's chosen to stay on the West Coast for his college ball.
The big quarterback recruit in this class is Californian, Oscar Rios. He's the final WIldcat recruit that hovers between four and three-star ratings and was rewarded for his high school achievements by getting to particpate in the Polynesian Bowl and reaching the Elite 11 Fiinals. Rios is also considered one of the fastest rising quarterback recruits in this class.
