Top offensive lineman commits to Wildcats

It's not football season quite yet, but the Arizona Wildcats picked up a big win Monday night.

No, seriously, big.

Michael Eletise, Scout.com's No. 1 ranked offensive guard in the West, committed to Rich Rodriguez and the UA during a live broadcast of the local news in his hometown of Honolulu, Hawaii. Eletise, listed at 6-feet-4-inches and 313 pounds, has long been Arizona's top target for the 2016 recruiting class.

Monday night, the Wildcats landed their guy.

Eletise picked the Wildcats over Washington, Arizona State, Ole Miss and Nebraska. He's ranked as the 11th best guard in the country by Scout and the 212th best prospect overall.
