Notable: Carter Jones was recruited by Arizona linebackers coach and special teams coordinator Danny Gonzales. Jones has racked up 375 total tackles with 16.5 for loss alongside two sacks and three interceptions. He is the brother to Class of 2027 four-star quarterback Caden Jones who currently remains an Arizona target.

Why Arizona: "I chose Arizona over many schools because I really built an amazing relationship with Coach Brennan and his staff. I got to see Brennan after the wins and after the losses and I talked with him a lot. He is a super positive coach and his energy and passion for Arizona is contagious. I also loved the campus and University. It is a great place where the whole town comes out to support you," Jones told GOAZCATS.com. "I am not worried about this past season. Look at ASU last year, they recruited me hard and offered me. They made huge progress in just a year and they turned it around. Also, Florida State. They recruited me hard and they went from being 13-0 last year to having a tough season. Anything can happen in football each year. All I know is that I believe in Brennan and I am excited to be part of the program and help us have a great season next year."
