Phillips on his commitment to Arizona

Phillips is only halfway through his junior year of high school but while on an official visit over the weekend in Tucson, he decided to make the early pledge to the Wildcats.

“I chose Arizona because they fit me and I fit them,” Phillips said. “I believe in the coaching staff and they believe in me. I can see myself going there and being really successful in that program. I know it’s going to feel like home. 

“When it’s my time to come in, I’m going to make the best of it and really go after it.”

Jamari Phillips has a message for Arizona fans.

“I’m coming to turn up the city!”
