UW This Season: Orlando Arnold enjoyed a good spring practice in 2009, moving into the No. 2 spot on the Wyoming depth chart at tight end. Arnold is a very athletic tight end with good hands and good size. That could pay dividends in Wyoming's new spread offense where tight ends are utilized like big wide receivers, running out of the slot and split wide in different situations.

2008: Arnold played in six games during the 2008 season, but did not have any receptions in his first season playing at the NCAA Division I level after transferring from Contra Costa Community College in California.

Junior College: He earned First Team All-Bay Valley Conference and All-State among California community colleges in 2007. Arnold caught 49 passes for 620 yards and 10 touchdowns his sophomore season at Contra Costa Community College. He was timed at 4.7 seconds in the 40-yard dash while in junior college. His junior college coach was John McDermott. Arnold was elected a team captain at Contra Costa, and he also started on the Contra Costa basketball team. Other schools that recruited Arnold coming out of junior college were: Arizona State, California, Mississippi State, San Diego State, UNLV and Washington.

High School: His athletic ability is also evidenced by the fact that he was a three-sport star in high school -- playing football, basketball and baseball at Richmond High School in the Bay Area. He earned First Team All-Conference honors three years in high school, and was an All-Metro selection as a senior. Arnold played tight end and defensive end in football, was a forward/center in basketball and was an outstanding center fielder on the baseball diamond.

Personal: Born Nov. 10, 1988, he is the son of Tia Honable and Lonnie Arnold. Arnold is majoring in sociology at UW.
