Exactly one week from National Signing Day, three-star linebacker KC Ossai decommitted from the Arizona Wildcats' 2021 football recruiting class Wednesday evening, citing "lack of interest" from Jedd Fisch and the UA's new coaching staff.
The 6-foot-1-inch, 222-pound Dallas-area native, who is the brother of Texas Longhorns star linebacker Joseph Ossai, announced his decision to reopen his recruitment on Twitter.
After the new coaching staff and the lack of interest I would like to announce that I am de-committing from the university of Arizona #AGTG #TRUSTINGOD

Bolstering depth at linebacker was point of emphasis for the Wildcats this recruiting cycle, even with the former coaching staff, so Arizona currently has five linebackers signed or committed for '21: Western Michigan transfer and 2019 MAC Defensive Player of the Year Treshaun Hayward, New Orleans outside linebacker Kolbe Cage, Texas outside linebacker Jackson Bailey, Seattle-area product DJ Fryar and Illinois inside linebacker Mojo Weerts.
