Several freshmen could contribute immediately on Arizona’s special teams

The 2019 recruiting class brought a lot of size to the Arizona Wildcats, and while it helps fill out each position group, it’s also helping special teams.

“We have a lot of length from the freshman group right now so I see some of those guys developing right now,” special teams coordinator Jeremy Springer said after practice on Tuesday.

Special teams can be a launching point for a younger player’s career, and Springer is going to be looking up and down the roster to see who’s fit for his units and ready to develop.
