After a couple days of mostly drills to open up fall camp, there was a little more action on Friday for Arizona as they worked in shoulder pads for the first time. There were some highlights in the 7-on-7s and 11-on-11's (mostly done in the red zone) that included a couple of touchdown passes from Jayden de Laura to Michael Wiley out of the backfield and some nice defensive coverage from Christian Roland-Wallace defending Tetairoa McMillan.

After Friday's practice that lasted a little over two hours, offensive coordinator Brennan Carroll and junior offensive lineman Jordan Morgan spoke to the media.

"This is kind of our starting point," Carroll said. "We got a long way to go, a lot of improvements to make, a lot of communication with the backs and quarterbacks, make sure everyone is on the same page but it has been good."
