Arizona to host Missouri EDGE transfer D.J. Wesolak

D.J. Wesolak is heading to the Grand Canyon State this week.

The Missouri redshirt freshman transfer EDGE will be officially visiting Arizona starting on Thursday, On3 has learned. The Wildcats have been in hot pursuit of Wesolak ever since he declared his intent to enter the transfer portal on Nov. 30. UofA offered him a scholarship last week.

“I’m excited to get out there and see what they have to offer me as a young pass rusher, especially with the interest they’ve shown me since entering,” Wesolak, a former four-star recruit, told On3.

Arizona coaches made an in-home visit with him last week and they’ll return for another meeting before he departs for the late-week trip.

D.J. Wesolak told On3 he’s also heard from Purdue, Arizona State, Michigan State and UNLV this week. Boilermaker coaches reached out to him for the first time on Monday. Kansas, Iowa State, Washington, Eastern Michigan and Penn State have also been in recent contact.

D.J. Wesolak saw action in five games as a freshman but did not record any stats during his two seasons in Columbia. As a recruit, Wesolak was the No. 171 overall prospect in the 2022 class, according to the On3 Industry Ranking, a weighted average that utilizes all four major recruiting media companies. He ranked as the nation’s No. 19 EDGE and the No. 4 recruit in Missouri.
