Arizona signs players who fit team's needs on signing day

Rich Rodriguez's latest recruiting class came without drama.

He's not going to complain about it one bit.

Arizona added depth and talent in its fourth recruiting class under Rodriguez, a 25-player group that was rated 41st nationally by Scout and Rivals.

The Wildcats' 2014 class was rated higher than this group, but Rodriguez was more focused on players who fit the program than where they were rated by recruiting services. He also was able to get commitments from most them early in the process.

The headliner of this year's group is offensive tackle Keenan Walker from Chaparral High School just up the road in Scottsdale.

The class includes six junior-college transfers.
