It's nothing new as Arizona's coaches continue to make their way around the country checking in on recruits and making new offers. The staff has kicked things into overdrive lately and the last couple weeks have been filled with new offers going out. That has continued through today and shows no signs of stopping with just under two weeks until the end of the spring evaluation period. We already broke down one offer that went out yesterday to Serra four-star athlete Bryan Addison, but here's a look at the other latest recruits to add UA to their lists.
Jarren Williams - Lawrenceville (Ga.) Central Gwinnett
The three-star quarterback from Georgia is an interesting story. He committed to Kentucky early last summer and never looked back ... until he looked back. More schools entered the picture after that time and he began to take visits seeing schools such as Alabama, Florida, Florida State, LSU and Tennessee. When that happened he eventually decided last month that he wanted to open up the process even more and officially decommitted from the Wildcats. Less than a month later, and just this week on Monday, Williams decided to commit for a second time back with Kentucky. Now he is saying he is set but that is not stopping Arizona from banking on him opening it up again as things move along.
There are many more months until the first signing period in December and even more until February so that means plenty of time for a program like Arizona to make its move. K'Hari Lane is from Georgia and so is Donavan Tate, so UA looking to the state for quarterbacks is starting to become a trend and the dual-threat recruit is now the latest to add UA to his list. As a junior Williams threw for 2,618 yards and 26 touchdowns to just two interceptions in addition to running for 425 yards and nine more scores on the ground. He runs a 4.75 40-yard dash for those interested in that number.
Chigozie Anusiem - La Habra (Calif.) Sonora
Sonora High in Orange County isn't necessarily known for putting players into the Power Five ranks, but this year the La Habra high school has a standout cornerback with the size the staff likes to see. Anusiem is already building quite himself a decent this spring and Arizona was the latest school to jump in after Marcel Yates made a stop in the area on Thursday to check things out. Because of where he goes to school it takes some work to find him and so far smaller schools have mostly made up his list with Washington State being the only other Power Five school on his list coming just a day before UA offered. Army, Eastern Washington, Hawaii, Idaho, Montana, UNLV and Wyoming are the other schools that have offered.
The 6-foot-2 defensive back finished his junior season with 45 tackles and nine pass breakups. At this point if UCLA offers that will be the school to beat, but there hasn't been any indication of that yet. So for now UA is in a good spot now that it has offered as the feeling is he'd rather stay closer to home if he can.
Jackson Kimble - Southlake (Texas) Carroll
Stop me if you've heard this before, but Arizona went back to Texas on Thursday with an offer out to another 2018 prospect in the Lone Star State. This time it was Baylor commit Jackson Kimble who is currently rated as a high three-star prospect. Kimble grew up as a fan of the Bears and that played a big part in his recruitment and eventual decision earlier this year. There has certainly been plenty of turmoil still in Waco and that means programs are going to continue to try and pull those recruits away from Baylor until they are signed. Kimble is one the Wildcats like and decided to jump in the race Thursday.
Schools have continued to offer the 6-foot-5 offensive lineman even after his pledge to Baylor and his current list includes Arizona State, Arkansas, Arkansas State, Bowling Green, Colorado State, Houston, Minnesota, TCU and Texas Tech.
