The only quarterback competition the Arizona Wildcats have this year is determining who’s going to backup Khalil Tate.
The season-opener is only two and a half weeks away, but it’s still anyone’s job, as offensive coordinator/quarterbacks coach Noel Mazzone said Wednesday that none of UA’s six backups have separated from the pack.
“Thank goodness (the season) doesn’t start tomorrow,” he joked.
True freshmen Jamarye Joiner and Kevin Doyle are seen as the likeliest options to win the job, given their sheer talent. Joiner, a dual-threat quarterback, starred at local Cienega High School while Doyle, a pocket-passer, was a high-three-star recruit and once a Michigan commit.
