Goal: Keep QB safe.


Keep Scott safe:

Quarterback Matt Scott will likely wear a "hands-off" jersey when spring drills open Monday.
It makes sense: Scott is the only scholarship quarterback on the roster, and the only player to take a college snap at the position.
"Normally, I wouldn't do it -- but because Matt's the only one with experience, we'll probable debate it, if he's going to be more limited," Rodriguez said.
Still, Rodriguez said, "at some point, I've got to see Matt."
Wide-receiver-turned-quarterback Richard Morrison will back Scott up during the spring, with walk-ons Tyler D'Amore and Alex Cappellini competing for the No. 3 spot.
Rodriguez said he expects incoming freshmen Javelle Allen and Josh Kern to push Scott once they enroll this summer.
Rodriguez repeatedly referred to Arizona Stadium's north end zone project as "The Lowell-Stevens Football Facility," though the name is still subject to university approval.
The $72 million construction project is named after its two largest
benefactors: Jeff and Sharon Stevens gave $12 million to the project, while David and Edith Lowell contributed $11 million.
The Wildcats' uniforms will stay the same this fall, though Rodriguez said he's open to tweaks starting in 2013.
"Our color scheme won't change and the 'block A' is going to stay the 'block A'", Rodriguez said. "I'm wide open an looking forward to (tweaks); we've got some great colors."

=======================
The video camera recording the North End Zone construction today showed close ups of the work. It also showed the south end zone where the field is torn up (?) The grass on rest of the field looks terrible. The Wildcat fan can see no way football can be played on the once gem of a field with special hybrid golfing grass. I predict the grass will be converted to artificial turf before a game is played, and maybe not until 2013 !! If so, where will the Wildcats play this season?
