Having stability at quarterback is a luxury Arizona hasn't enjoyed since Rich Rodriguez's arrival. But 2015 will prove to be much different.

For the first time, Rodriguez will have a returning starter at quarterback in Anu Solomon, and that, Arizona's play-by-play announcer Brian Jeffries tells Campus Insiders, is huge.

"It's big for Arizona's offense," Jeffries tells Campus Insiders. "It's big for Rich Rodriguez. It's the first time he'll have a returning quarterback in a starting role. I think just his familiarity with his offense and everyone being familiar with him.

"Spring practice there was more ease with the offense. They hope to go into the season already at their best instead of having to work their way into the season with a new quarterback."

Solomon last season commanded the offense with much poise, finishing the season with an impressive 3,793 yards passing and 28 touchdowns against nine interceptions.

Talk about luxury.
