Arizona has lost its second quarterback in two weeks to a season-ending injury. Wildcats coach Jedd Fisch said Monday that Gunner Cruz is done for the year after suffering a thumb injury in Saturday's 34-0 loss to Colorado. The sophomore is expected to h ave surgery and will have about a six-month rehabilitation. Cruz opened the season as the starter but was replaced by Will Plummer after struggling against San Diego State. Cruz became the starter again when Jordan McCloud suffered knee and ankle injurie s against UCLA on. Oct. 9. McCloud had surgery last week. Cruz tore a ligament in his right thumb when he hit his hand on a helmet while throwing a pass that was intercepted and returned for a touchdown. He threw for 536 yards and two touchdowns with thr ee interceptions in five games this season. Plummer will again be the starter now for the Wildcats (0-6, 0-3 Pac-12) , who have lost a school-record 18 straight games heading into Friday's game against Washington. - AP College Football

After months of jockeying for Arizona's starting quarterback spot, Gunner Cruz and Will Plummer will both earn reps in the Wildcats' Sept. 4 season opener against BYU. UA coach Jedd Fisch announced the decision during his weekly press conference Tuesday afternoon. Cruz, a Gilbert native and Washington State transfer, and Plummer, a fellow Gilbert product and second-year returner, will start ahead of South Florida transfer Jordan McCloud, who missed spring ball and didn't arrive on campus until the start of preseason training camp. Cruz will handle Arizona's opening drive against BYU. "Two's better than one," Fisch said. "That's our mindset until further notice."The last time the 6-foot-5, 227-pound Cruz started a game at quarterback was his seni or season in 2018 at Queen Creek Casteel High School, when the Colts lost Gilbert Higley in a playoff game. As a junior, Cruz led Casteel to a perfect 14-0 record and the Class 3A state championship. Casteel finished his high school career with 3,598 yar ds, 30 touchdowns and five interceptions. At Washington State, Cruz only saw action in one game against USC, completing 5 of 7 passes for 34 yards and a touchdown. - Arizona Star News

Gunner Cruz has taken his last snaps in a Washington State uniform, but the Cougars will probably cross paths with the quarterback at some point in the next few years. One day after it was learned Cruz entered the NCAA transfer portal, the big-armed reds hirt freshman from Queen Creek, Arizona, announced on Twitter he'll be transferring within the Pac-12 Conference to the University of Arizona. Cruz and fellow underclassman Cammon Cooper lost out on a position battle to true freshman Jayden de Laura in f all camp and Cruz got his only snaps of the season in the fourth quarter of a blowout loss at USC. - Spokesman-Review
