Sabino's Drew Dixon (1) manages to dive into the end zone after his catch and run against Winslow at Sabino High School, Saturday, Nov. 12, 2016, Tucson, Ariz. Kelly Presnell / Arizona Daily Star 

Based on the online recruiting rankings, there’s a consensus on Arizona’s best recruit, and it’s unanimous — Tilford, a four-star running back from Ontario, California.

Who comes after him?

Colin Schooler is rated four stars by 247sports.com and could start immediate starter at middle linebacker.

Sabino’s Drew Dixon is a four-star recruit, according to Rivals.com. At 6 feet 4 inches, Dixon brings much-needed size to Arizona’s receiving corps.

“To get Dixon, to keep a guy in Tucson at that size, that ability, is pretty impressive,” Roth said.

Los Angeles linebacker Anthony Pandy is Arizona’s fourth-highest rated recruit according to Scout.com.

Tempe’s My-King Johnson, the No. 1 defensive end in Arizona, is another impact player. The defensive end chose the UA over offers from Oregon, USC, UCLA and Texas A&M.
