Site founder and award-winning sports journalist Javier Morales has published his first e-book, “The Highest Form of Living”, a fiction piece about a young man who overcomes a troubled upbringing without his lost father and wayward mother through basketball and hope. His hope is realized through the sport he loves. Basketball enables him to get past his fears. His experience on the court indirectly brings him closer to his parents in a unique, heartfelt way.

Great choice by Arizona to have Jay Dobyns narrate its recruiting video. Our No. 1 badass on the offensive side in Wildcat football history.
Flattered and honored to narrate the video defining @ArizonaFBall OKG's. https://t.co/o2ezn2M4n2

Another form of saying “comfortably uncomfortable” for Rich Rod.
RichRod on football: 'You have to do a lot of things that are unpleasant to have a pleasant experience.' #SigningDay #ArizonaWildcats

Wright knows of his priorities.
.@TwoStarScoob on postseason hardware: 'The one I'm looking forward to the most is the Pac-12 South championship ring.' #SigningDay

Arizona’s highest rated recruit may have to sit out next year as a grayshirt while redshirting his knee injury.
OT Keenan Walker to @Jody_Jackson: 'I'm excited because I have seen what UA has done and I know what they can do.' #SigningDay #AZOKGDay

Rodriguez said Arizona will recruit nationally, especially if the prospect is committed enough to visit the campus on an unofficial visit. This shows the broad scope of his recruitment.

Pressure on the edge so important with Wright as middle linebacker.
RichRod on JC DE Timmy Hamilton: 'He can play the run, but particularly in a pass-rush situation, he can give us needed help.' #SigningDay

What goes around comes around?
Brady Hoke interviewed Harbaugh today, four years after Rich Rodriguez interviewed him on NSD. The circle is complete http://t.co/znle0CHIPB

No shockers with players changing their commitment like prior years. A mark that the program is gaining steam.
“To our guy’s credit, there wasn’t too much drama today.” – Rich Rodriguez. Zona likes to get their kids locked down early, no doubt.
— #ZCShow (@ZachEClark) February 4, 2015
Arizona Daily Star’s beat reporter went so far as to say the day was “uneventful” and that’s a good thing.
Of the 3 RichRod signing days I've covered, today's certainly the most uneventful. No surprises/late adds. UA was done real early this year

So Snoop Dogg’s son committed to UCLA. Rodriguez and his staff will gladly take the son of former Desert Swarm member Darryl Morrison.
