3 Arizona defensive players put on scholarship

As walk-ons, Rourke Freeburg, Jaydin Young and Treydan Stukes never got to experience the fanfare of signing a National Letter of Intent to attend the University of Arizona.

At a team meeting Wednesday, head football coach Jedd Fisch made the trio center stage as they signed scholarship papers and donned an Arizona cap in front of their jubilant teammates.

On a projector screen behind them was an ESPN graphic from when LeBron James made “The Decision” to sign with the Miami Heat in 2010.
