On this Tucson Tuesday, we're launching a new series spotlighting our higher education partner, the uarizona, and some of its famous football alumni, who went on to reach the Super Bowl following their collegiate careers. Upon transferring to Arizona in 2008, nickfoles spent three years at quarterback for arizonafootball, throwing 67 touchdowns before he was drafted by the philadelphiaeagles in 2012. The 6-foot-6 QB bounced around the NFL early in his career, before returning to Philadelphia in 2017 as a backup. Stepping in for an injured Carson Wentz late in the season, he would lead the #Eagles into the playoffs and to a surprising victory over Tom Brady and the New England Patriots in Super Bowl LII, while becoming the #Wildcats first alum to earn #SuperBowl MVP honors. #Tucson #UofA #uarizona #arizonawildcats #beardown #beardownarizona
