Pulido is a 6-6, 335, Freshman offensive lineman from Apple Valley HS, Apple Valley, CA. It is hard not to get excited about a player that decommitted from Alabama to switch to Arizona. He is a large human being who could find himself in the Arizona rotation sooner than later. Here's Brandon Combs analysis from AZ Desert Swarm:
Here's a first for me - an analysis video from while he was an Alabama commit:Pulido is a two-sport athlete, also playing basketball for Apple Valley. And that athleticism translates in a big way to the football field. He has very good foot speed and moves extremely well for his size. He is able to marry those traits with a decent amount of speed, which makes him an effective candidate for a pulling lineman.
He already posses above average strength and does a good job using it. Once Pulido is able to get his meat hooks on you, it’s very difficult to escape. He will only become more difficult to break free from once he gets some time in Tyler Owens’ strength program in Tucson.
Probably one of his most important attributes is his aggressiveness and nastiness that he plays with. He loves contact and is relentless in his blocking. He creates power in his initial blow and continues until his opponent on the ground.
He does have a little bit of a habit to play with higher pad level, but that is easily fixed. He has an incredibly high ceiling and has versatility to boot, playing both tackle and guard. A very, very good addition for Brennan Carroll’s position group.
