Magloire is a 6'1", 227, redshirt Senior linebacker from Ft. Lauderdale, FL. Clearly the breakout player of last year, Magloire started as a safety, but was moved to linebacker when we attempted to set an NCAA record for injured linebackers. He started the final 8 games while leading the team in solo tackles (54) and was second on the team in total tackles (72) behind Will Parks. Magloire also had 1 forced fumble and 1 recovery on the year.
This year Magloire has already been named to the Bednarik Award watch list and should be one of the leaders on the defense. Until this week he was listed on the roster as a safety, but it has been changed now to show him as a linebacker. He is going to be starting somewhere on the field, but I am not sure yet if it will be at outside linebacker or as one of the hybrid safeties. Where ever he ends up, Magliore is the favorite to lead the team in tackles this year and to be our biggest defensive playmaker.
14 is the Arizona record for most passes caught in a game set by Jeremy McDaniel against Cal in 1996.
