Wildcats Stars Return for BYU Clash | Arizona Wildcats Football News

Arizona’s star running back Ismail Mahdi and linebacker Max Harris are cleared to play this Saturday against BYU after a Pima County judge issued a temporary restraining order — a huge boost for the Wildcats as they aim for an upset on the road. Both players, sidelined since their season opener due to an NCAA eligibility dispute over the new five-year rule, were key contributors last season. The court sided with them, calling the NCAA’s exclusion of 2022 high school grads arbitrary. A $1,000 bond must be posted by Sept. 14 to activate the ruling, with a major hearing set for Sept. 21. For now, fans can rejoice as their top players return for a critical showdown against a top-15 opponent. Listen in comfort:Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
