  Arizona quarterback Jordan McCloud is out for the rest of the season after suffering right knee and ankle injuries against UCLA. Wildcats coach Jedd Fisch said Monday McCloud is expected to have surgery this week. McCloud was injured in the fourth quarter of Arizona's 34-16 loss to UCLA Saturday night when his leg got twisted up while he was getting sacked. A transfer from South Florida, McCloud started two games after beginning the season as the backup to Gunner Cruz and Will Plummer. The sophomore threw for 481 yards and two touchdowns in three games this season. Fisch said Cruz, who started the first two games of the season, will start against Colorado on Saturday. - AP College Football

  Here was Fisch's message about the Arizona quarterbacks battle following the spring game: "Get ready for a war. If they want to be the starting quarterback here in September, then they better be ready to compete. We've got another guy coming in, we've got a bunch of guys here, and I hope they're ready for a lot of battles to see who's going to come out on top." Gunner Cruz and returner Will Plummer split most of the snap in spring ball. That other "guy" is ex-South Florida starter Jordan McCloud, who is one of three quarterbacks Arizona has added via transfer portal; Cruz (Washington State) and walk-on Nick Moore (Oregon State) are the others.

McCloud was the only quarterback on Arizona's roster who didn't participate in spring ball, so he's behind schedule in terms of understanding verbiage and experiencing Fisch's offense first-hand. But McCloud stayed engaged as much as he could, and even attended a spring practice as a spectator. In two seasons at South Florida, McCloud completed 244 of 418 passes for 2,770 yards and 21 touchdowns while being intercepted 10 times. He also rushed for 357 yards and five touchdowns. In the final game of the 2020 season against Central Florida, McCloud went 32 for 46 for 404 yards and five all-purpose touchdowns. - Arizona Star News

  UTEP tailback Deion Hankins enters this season in a fundamentally different position from his previous two years. The Parkland alum, who graduated as El Paso's all-time leading rusher, is technically still a freshman, but one of the upshots of the strange freebie year of 2020 is that he enters this year as the most accomplished freshman UTEP's ever had. In his second year in the program after a 2019 redshirt he averaged 4.9 yards per carry as the featured tailback and scored nine touchdowns in seven games. Now he's in his third year, part of a small four-man tailback corps that nonetheless counts as the deepest spot on the roster. It also includes Quardraiz Wadley, now in his sixth year of a UTEP career that began with him backing up Aaron Jones in 2016, fifth-year junior Ronald Awatt, who averaged 4.5 yards per carry last year, and second-year freshman Willie Eldridge, the most highly rated player of the 2020 recruiting class.

This is the spot on the offense UTEP feels best about, and also one that will provide leadership for everyone. "It feels different," Hankins said. "I've been here for a while, I'm coming up on my third year. Time flies. I need to step it up with my leadership and all around as a player. "We've got a good group and we all bring something different. I bring strength, toughness. We're all tough. I try to lead more by example than by words. I definitely have to step it up. As camp progresses, I need to be an all-around leader." - El Paso Times

  Fifth-year UNC football standout Beau Corrales is set to begin his final season in a Tar Heel uniform, hoping to avoid the kind of injuries that have plagued his four years in Chapel Hill. His most recent run-in with the injury bug was a sports hernia last year that required surgery and forced him to miss the team's final handful of games of the season. Back on the field in 2021 for an additional season of college football - that thanks to the NCAA allowing all student-athletes an extra year of eligibility due to the Covid-19 pandemic that affected so much of the 2020 season - Corrales is ready to make a difference for the ACC Coastal-favorite Tar Heels. But he's also got some side activities going on in the mean time.

On Saturday, it was announced that the Georgetown, Texas native will be teaming with Bojangles this season. That marriage is thanks to the NCAA's new NIL rules allowing student-athletes to earn money from their name, image and likeness while still in college. The popular fried chicken chain sent out a tweet on Saturday evening that touted their new partnership, stating that it's "Beau time." - Keeping It Heel

Off the gridiron, the 6-foot-2, 205-pound signal caller from San Antonio, Texas by way of MacArthur HS assists with the program's annual Bobcat Giving Tree in conjunction with the Texas State cheerleading program and university police department. He also volunteers his time serving the San Marcos community by cleaning rivers and local parks in addition to spending time at the city's pet shelter. - Texas State Football
