March in Tucson always means basketball. But while most in the Old Pueblo are dialed in on hoops, preparations for the Arizona 2022 football season are in full swing.
The Wildcats will open spring drills on Wednesday afternoon with a rebuilt roster that includes members of a highly-rated group of newcomers and transfers.
Arizona has only won one of its last 24 games, but the Wildcats are expecting to take steps forward in Season 2 of the Jedd Fisch era. The UA has added 41 newcomers — 22 of whom will participate in spring ball.
“We need to get better as a football team,” Fisch said on Tuesday.
