Nick Isham’s Arizona run was brief, but his game showed poise and a live arm
Nick Isham arrived at Arizona as a transfer quarterback with a proven early-career résumé at Louisiana Tech, where in the 2012 season he threw for 1,457 yards, 8 touchdowns and 7 interceptions, plus 2 rushing scores. At Arizona in the 2013 season, he appeared in all 13 games and handled holder duties, which says a lot about his coachability, team-first value, and willingness to do the dirty work. The big takeaway: he wasn’t a pure stat monster, but a steady, adaptable QB with experience, toughness, and a backup-friendly skill set.
