Marcel Yates a finalist for Arizona head coaching job, per report

Arizona Wildcats defense coordinator Marcel Yates is a finalist for the head coaching job, reports Bruce Feldman of FOX Sports and Sports Illustrated.

Feldman expects Arizona to make its hire within the next 48 hours. Navy head coach Ken Niumatalolo appears to be the frontrunner.

ESPN’s Adam Rittenberg reported that Cal offensive coordinator Beau Baldwin and ex-Texas A&M coach Kevin Sumlin are thought to be in the mix as well.

One of the finalists for the #Arizona head coaching vacancy, I’m told, is DC Marcel Yates, who has a lot of support within the program.
