Arizona Star Receiver Tetairoa McMillan Named All-American by Prominent Publication
It was a season best pushed as far back in their minds as possible for the Arizona Wildcats and first-year head coach Brent Brennan.
After finishing 2023 with 10 wins, the program was hopeful for a strong showing in their debut campaign in the Big 12, but that strong showing will have to wait.
The Wildcats played to a 10-3 record in 2023, the last year under head coach Jedd Fisch and in the Pac-12, and followed it up with a 4-8 record in 2024.
It was a poor performance from a team that showed so much promise. But while the overall showing was disappointing, Arizona’s superstar wide receiver Tetairoa McMillan still did what he does best, and it earned him a first-team All-American nod from The Athletic‘s college football staff.
“The Wildcats may not have met soaring preseason expectations, but McMillan posted his second consecutive big season to deliver on the preseason hype after he elected to stay at Arizona following the departure of coach Jedd Fisch to Washington,” writes The Athletic. “As a junior, he caught 84 passes for 1,319 yards and eight touchdowns, including 304 yards in the opener against New Mexico and 202 yards against West Virginia. He continues to show a knack for highlight-reel catches.”
McMillan surpassed 1,000 yards receiving for the second time in as many years and led the Big 12 in that metric.
For his career, he has tallied 3,423 receiving yards on 213 receptions, averaging 16.1 yards per catch and 92.5 yards per game, with 26 touchdowns.
The junior is expected to be a top-10 pick in the upcoming NFL draft, with a recent mock from Sports Illustrated projecting the superstar receiver to be taken with the No. 6 overall pick, currently held by the Tennessee Titans.
McMillan is all but guaranteed to make a splash with whatever team he does land with through the draft, and having his talent witnessed by many more people across the nation when he plays on Sundays will begin to earn him more of the recognition that he deserves.

The Washington Huskies saw one of their few remaining uncommitted targets in the 2027 class go elsewhere on Thursday afternoon when three-star cornerback Evan Mack announced his commitment to Jedd Fisch’s former program, the Arizona Wildcats.
The 6-foot-3, 175-pound product of Crean Lutheran High School in Southern California chose coach Brent Brennan’s team out of a final three that also included the Huskies and Arizona State, after official visits to all three programs.
After taking an unofficial visit to Seattle for spring practice in April, Mack took his first official visit, a trip to Arizona State, on May 1. Then, he returned to Montlake on June 5, before wrapping things up in Tucson on June 19, which made enough of an impact for the Wildcats to win the battle for his services.
As a junior, the nation’s No. 613 overall prospect and No. 64 cornerback, according to the 247Sports Composite, tallied 49 tackles, 10 pass breakups, and 2 interceptions, while showcasing the promising athleticism and ball skills that secondary coach John Richardson is looking for on the outside.
If he were to have chosen the Huskies, Mack, who has plenty of room to add weight to his frame for the physicality of the Big Ten, would’ve had a long route to the field. Behind projected starters Dylan Robinson and Emmanuel Karnley, who both have eligibility to return in 2027, Washington’s coaching staff is expecting a contribution from four-star freshman Rahsjon Duncan on the outside, while his classmate Jeron Jones and sophomore Elias Johnson both stood out during spring practice.
The Huskies currently have one commit at cornerback in three-star Maurice Williams; however, the Huskies also hold several projections to reel in coveted four-star IMG Academy product Censere Gaylord.
