When the Arizona Wildcats lost linebacker Scooby Wright during their season opener, it became a critical absence for the 2014 Pac-12 South champions. 

Haden Gregory was the expected backup for Arizona's matchup vs. the University of Nevada, though he was injured with an apparent knee issue. Tre Tyler, his replacement, was a redshirt freshman who received unexpected playing time before also sustaining an injury. 

Derrick Turituri, a junior from Central Point, Ore., got some playing time as the fourth middle linebacker of the season for the Arizona Wildcats. He, too, left the game with injury. Who's next at linebacker for U of A?
