JuCo linebackers Delshawn Phillips and Matt Leo spurn Arizona for Illinois and Iowa State

The Arizona Wildcats were slated to sign three junior college prospects during the early signing period based on verbal commitments, but now they will only have one of those three players.

Three-star linebacker Delshawn Phillips of Garden City (Garden City, KS) committed to Arizona over the summer, but now he is heading to Illinois.

Also, Matt Leo, a three-star defensive end at Western Arizona, did not sign with the Wildcats and instead signed with Iowa State.

Originally from Detroit, Michigan, Phillips was a two-star prospect out of Cass Technical, a football powerhouse.
