Two-way SoCal athlete Nick Fernandez recap's June visit to Arizona
Nick Fernandez enjoyed his time in Tucson last month as he took an official visit to see Arizona up close.
Two-way athlete Nick Fernandez was one of the recruits to take an official visit to Arizona last month. He came away very impressed by that trip but he has continued to think about his options. He visited Colorado State after visiting UA but he also hopes to see Washington State at some point as well. For now, the visit to Arizona certainly left a strong impression on him. The Wildcats want him to play along the defensive line as an edge rusher and the trip to Tucson gave him an opportunity to get to know Ricky Hunley and Johnny Nansen some more after initially building his relationship with Jason Kaufusi. UA only offered him back in May so the relationship is not that old but Arizona is in a good spot.
“Oh man, it was a great first experience ever. The food, the way they took care of me. The coaches in general were amazing. I’ve never seen coaches like that for sure. The way the coaches were with their players was awesome. It was really awesome. Especially at that high of a football level for the coaches to be like that was really comforting to see. Seeing the facilities, seeing the academics, seeing what NIL can do at that place, being able to hang out with the players was amazing. Being able to see their apartments and their dorms. Seeing what they do on their film and how they run their defense, and seeing what I can bring to that team and what I can do for them it was awesome.”
