 Rob Gronkowski - TEJan. 16 - 10:00 am et
Arizona tight end Rob Gronkowski has decided to forgo his final two years of eligibility and enter the 2010 NFL Draft.  "I'm ready. It was a difficult decision but I believe I'm ready for the next challenge," Gronkowski said.
Gronkowski has the size and athleticism to be the top tight end taken in the April draft.

 Rob Gronkowski - TEJan. 14 - 4:45 pm et
ESPN's Joe Schad is reporting that Arizona tight end Rob Gronkowski will announce his intentions to enter the 2010 NFL Draft on Friday, according to sources.
This doesn't come as a surprise. If he was coming back, he would not have held a press conference on the early entry deadline. Gronk's departure leaves the 2010 fantasy class looking very thin at tight end.

 Rob Gronkowski - TEJan. 13 - 11:15 pm et
Arizona tight end Rob Gronkowski will hold a press conference on Friday during which he'll announce his plans for next season.  
All signs are pointing towards Gronkowski passing on his final year of eligibility and entering the NFL Draft.

 Rob Gronkowski - TEJan. 11 - 8:15 pm et
Arizona tight end Rob Gronkowski will meet with his back surgeon on Wednesday.  If he's given the all-clear, he will enter the 2010 NFL Draft.  "I'll most likely go into the draft if I can be 100 percent by (next month's NFL) combine," Gronkowski told the Arizona Star.
This seems like a forgone conclusion.  I don't think he would be flying out to California to receive final confirmation unless his back felt good.

 Rob Gronkowski - TEJan. 10 - 3:00 am et
Arizona tight end Rob Gronkowski is still undecided on whether or not he will enter the NFL draft.
The Gronk is expected to hear from the NFL Advisory Committee early next week, and we assume he will receive a favorable response, despite his recent back injury.  While we'd love for him to return, we simply don't see it happening.

 Nick Foles - QBDec. 31 - 10:30 am et
Arizona quarterback Nick Foles had a rough evening in the Holiday Bowl against Nebraska, finishing just 6 of 20 for 28 yards and an interception.
Ouch. Arizona didn't cross mid-field until their first possession in the third quarter. Foles was a solid quarterback once securing the starting gig this year, so don't let this performance scare you away next season.

 Rob Gronkowski - TEDec. 23 - 10:15 am et
The Arizona Daily Star reports the Arizona star tight end Rob Gronkowksi (back) is "50-50" on whether or not he'll declare for the NFL Draft, and that he'll likely only go pro if he's deemed a first-round draft pick.
Right now Gronkowski is able to walk and stand for long periods of time, but of course one needs to do a little more than that in order to play tackle football. The paper reports he'll be able to go in spring drills should he decide to remain a Wildcat.

 Nick Foles - QBDec. 7 - 11:00 am et
Arizona will play Nebraska in the Pacific Life Holiday Bowl in San Diego on Dec. 30 at 8 p.m.
The matchup pits two of the country's most underrated defense.  It could be tough sledding for Nebraska running back Roy Helu and Arizona quarterback Nick Foles.

 Nick Foles - QBDec. 5 - 9:15 pm et
Arizona quarterback Nick Foles threw for 239 yards, two touchdowns and an interception as the Wildcats upset USC.
Foles also ran for another score.  It's been a surprisingly successful season for 'Zona, and the rising junior has established himself as one of the best signal callers in the conference.  He'll probably battle Oregon quarterback Jeremiah Masoli for first Pac-10 QB off of the board.

 Nick Foles - QBDec. 1 - 9:45 pm et
Arizona quarterback Nick Foles (left hand) said he'll be fine and that he'll wear a splint when the Wildcats tackle USC this weekend.  
Foles has been a breakout performer this year, and his arm gives the Wildcats more than a fighting chance this Saturday.

 Nic Grigsby - RBNov. 30 - 10:30 pm et
Arizona running back Nic Grigsby (shoulder) will miss his second consecutive game this week as his teammates take on USC.  
Keola Antolin and Greg Nwoko will again carry much of the load for the Wildcats.

 Nic Grigsby - RBNov. 24 - 9:00 am et
Arizona coach Mike Stoops told the East Valley Tribune that running back Nic Grigsby (shoulder) will miss Saturday's game with Arizona State, and fellow back Keola Antolin (shoulder) is questionable.
Look for big Greg Nwoko to see more carries should Antolin miss some or all of the contest.

 Juron Criner - WRNov. 22 - 2:45 pm et
Arizona wide receiver Juron Criner had five catches for 93 yards and three touchdowns against Oregon.
Quarterback Nick Foles threw for 314 yards and four touchdowns in the loss.  Criner seems to score in bunches, and is now up to eight on the year.  Foles is the most consistent bet for the Wildcats however, and he has done a great job of sharing the wealth this season, making all Arizona wide receivers risky plays.

 Nic Grigsby - RBNov. 18 - 10:30 pm et
Arizona running back Nic Grigsby (shoulder) is close to 100 percent according to coach Mike Stoops.
Grigsby has missed most of the last two games and  Keola Antolin has carried most of the load in his absence. The two should split the workload this week against Oregon.

 Keola Antolin - RBNov. 15 - 8:00 am et
Arizona running back Keola Antolin carried 19 times for 75 yards and a touchdown in tonight's loss to Cal.
Nic Grigsby didnt play, and Greg Nwoko only had one carry for minus three yards.  If injuries to these two continue to linger, Antolin could be a great flex option, if not more this late in the year.  Quarterback Nick Foles seems to have fallen back to Earth (206-1-1) so the Cats could also hand off more than usual down the stretch.

 Greg Nwoko - RBNov. 9 - 10:15 pm et
Arizona bruising running back Greg Nwoko (shoulder) could play this week against Cal.  
Young Mr. Nwoko has shown an ability to find the end zone even with limited carries, and he's a definite player to stash on the roster with expectations of many more touchdowns down the road.

 Nic Grigsby - RBNov. 9 - 10:15 pm et
Arizona running back Nic Grigsby (shoulder) remains questionable for this week's game at Cal.
Grigsby sat out the blowout win over Washington State on Saturday. Keola Antolin saw 12 carries against the Cougars, and he'll likely carry the load again this week.

 Nick Foles - QBNov. 7 - 10:15 pm et
Arizona quarterback Nick Foles threw for just 136 yards and a touchdown in a blowout win over Washington State.
Foles owners have to be disappointed in the results of this one, as this set up for a huge evening against the Pac-10's worst team.  Don't lose your patience if you own Foles, he'll pitch it around again next weekend in Berkeley.

 Nick Booth - RBNov. 7 - 10:15 pm et
Arizona running back Nick Booth carried 18 times for 84 yards to lead the Wildcats to a route of Washington State.
This game got out of hand quickly, and Arizona shared the wealth as their top two running backs, Nic Grigsby and Greg Nwoko, sat out.  Keola Antolin started and ran 12 times for 61 yards and a touchdown.  250 pound freshman Taimi Tutogi picked up his first 12 carries of the year, running for 50 yards and a touchdown.  Even backup QB Matt Scott ran ten times for 91 yards.  Lets see who is healthy next week before predicting carries at Cal.

 Nick Foles - QBNov. 3 - 3:15 am et
The Arizona Daily Star reports that Arizona quarterback Nick Foles (upper respiratory infection) is just about 100% heading into Saturday's game with Washington State.  
When a quarterback of Foles' talent prepare to tackle Washington State we offer this bit of advice: start him!
