Recruiting: Arizona Wildcats target Adrian Ealy commits to Oklahoma Sooners

Adrian Ealy told the Star a couple days ago that, when he visited Arizona's campus, he "fell in love" with it.

Well, maybe it wasn't true love.

Thursday morning, Ealy released a Bleacher Report-produced parody of the Quentin Tarantino film "Reservoir Dogs" to announce his college selection. Not only was it not Arizona — Ealy committed to Oklahoma — but the Wildcats weren't even mentioned in the video.

Rather, Ealy had his final five as Oklahoma, Auburn, Florida, LSU and... Kansas.

The writing was on the wall for the Wildcats when UA offered 2017 offensive lineman Cole Norgaard a scholarship on Wednesday. Norgaard, from St. Mary's HS in Stockton, California, is rated a 3-star offensive lineman by Scout.com, and the No. 6 offensive tackle in California. 

Ealy had become a high priority for Arizona recently as the Wildcats aim to add some highly-rated players to the 2017 class, but now they'll turn their focus elsewhere. Namely, to four-star linebacker Antjuan Simmons, for whom the Wildcats are a finalist.
