College career
A Safety needy Arizona team decided to start McKinnie right away and that decision payed off big time. He had 74 tackles, a Forced Fumble, 2 sacks, and 3 interceptions as a true freshman, winning him PAC12 freshman of the year. His sophomore year was derailed by an injury in the second week of the season. McKinnie tore his meniscus and had to miss the whole year while recovering. He called it, "the worst year of his life". By junior year, his coaches noticed the effort he put into rehab and his impact on the sideline even while injured, so he was made defensive captain. He led the Wildcats with 87 tackles, 1.5 sacks, 4 interceptions and a defensive touchdown on their way to a 9-3 record and a Holiday Bowl victory in which he was named the game's MVP. He decided to skip his senior season and declare for the DSFL draft.
