Royse City quarterback Richard Morrison said Friday that he has committed to Arizona.

Morrison (6-0, 170), a Class 3A all-state selection as a junior, said he committed to Arizona on Thursday because the coaches offered him the chance to play quarterback.

"Oklahoma and Texas wanted me to play wide receiver," Morrison said, "and I don't want to switch positions."

Morrison threw for 3,350 yards and 33 touchdowns last season. He also ran for 11 touchdowns for Royse City, which finished 11-1.

Oral commitments are nonbinding, and the earliest a member of the class of 2009 can sign a football letter of intent is February 2009.
