Tanner McLachlan used YouTube to rehab his ACL injury last year. Then he became the most productive tight end for the Wildcats since Rob Gronkowski.
Last spring, he was a newbie learning Arizona’s offensive system and adjusting to his lifestyle in the Old Pueblo. This season, he’s a savvy veteran tight end — and a dog dad to an 8-month-old English bulldog puppy, Georgie.
Not only did McLachlan get ahead of his rehab, he caught 34 passes for 456 yards and two touchdowns, the most yards and catches by a UA tight end since Rob Gronkowski in 2008. The 6-5, 240-pound McLachlan displayed a useful move during his first season at Arizona — which he hadn’t performed ever in his football career: hurdling defenders. He did it three times last season against North Dakota State, Colorado and UCLA.
As a 6-6, 235-pound freshman, Burnett had three receptions for 10 yards. Learning the offensive playbook and settling into a new setting as an early enrollee “wasn’t overwhelming," Burnett said.One year of learning Arizona’s offense and taking a secondary role to McLachlan paid dividends for Burnett’s growth at the Power 5 level.
“The comfortability of knowing where to go, and now he’s going to take the next step in terms of ‘Why I’m doing this, how do we anticipate things, how to manipulate coverage so I can get a little bit more separation,’ ” Paopao said. “Coach-speak is always ‘the details, the details’ — well, that’s his detail.
