Arizona could get back a pair of injured wide receivers for Saturday\u2019s Top 25 showdown at Texas Tech, but it will also be without its lockdown corner<\/p>\n
CB Jay\u2019Vion Cole is listed as out on the first availability report issued by the Big 12 Conference, one of four players ruled out for the matchup with the 13th-ranked Red Raiders.. Also out are tight end Shane King and defensive linemen Kevin Moore and Ezra Funa, the latter having not played yet this season.<\/p>\n
Cole had started the first seven games this season, allowing only 16 catches on 30 targets, and is among the top-graded corners in the Big 12. In his absence the UA is likely to start Dwight Bootle II, who has been part of a 3-man rotation at the two corner spots with Cole and Tyrese Boss. Slot DB Malcolm Hartzog Jr. could also see time at corner.<\/p>\n
On the offensive side, receivers Chris Hunter and Giovanni Richardson are listed as questionable. Both have missed the past two games after getting hurt Oct. 3 vs. Cincinnati, the same game fellow WR Tre Spivey suffered a season-ending injury.<\/p>\n
Tight end Cole Rusk, who has been out several games, is listed as doubtful.<\/p>\n
Also listed as questionable are running back Ismail Mahdi and linebacker Max Harris but not because of injury. Both are seeking another emergency injunction to restore their eligibility after each appeared in a few games earlier this season.<\/p>\n
For Texas Tech, running back Cameron Dickey is listed as questionable. He\u2019s missed the last two games with an ankle injury.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Arizona could get back a pair of injured wide receivers for Saturday\u2019s Top 25 showdown at Texas Tech,…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":480131,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[6],"tags":[4938,27,29,28],"class_list":["post-480130","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-texas","tag-arizona-football","tag-texas","tag-texas-headlines","tag-texas-news"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/480130","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=480130"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/480130\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/480131"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=480130"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=480130"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=480130"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
