    Recruiting

    RE: Norman's "character"; if Dennis Erickson were still the coach, I'd be concerned. However, under Graham ASU hasn't really had any major discipline issues. The kids he has brought in have by in large worked out from an off the field point of view. The very few who haven't, i.e. Mike Pennell...

    Jaelen Strong to enter NFL Draft

    no big surprise by DJ Foster just announced he's staying for his SR year. I imagine w/ the emergence of Ballage and moreso Richard, as well as the loss of Strong, we'll see DJ at WR more. I think WR, along w/ maybe Special Teams, is DJ's only real shot in the NFL.

    Jaelen Strong to enter NFL Draft

    once you hire an agent you're locked in. Theres no chance he doesn't get drafted. Even if he has a nightmare of a combine, he'll go in the first 4 rounds at worst.

    Recruiting

    Apparently unrated/2 star JC OT Jaypee Philbert has committed to ASU. Or at least thats what he said on Twitter. Haven't seen official word anywhere. but ASU can certainly use O-line help. Somewhat surprising considering all the high ranked kids ASU seems to still be in on, but if true, you've...

    Recruiting

    5 Star JC LB Davon Durant has committed to ASU. Highest ranked recruit commit in the Graham era (Westerman doesn't count since he was a transfer). Good get!

    Recruiting

    well at least ASU plays TAMU to start next year. I know Kirk wants to play right away, so hopefully he's on the field and Lloyd Carrington locks him down all game.

    Recruiting

    Lets hope he stays home a la DJ Foster. It'd be especially disappointing to see him go to UCLA given all the Phoenix area talent that has slipped that way in recent years.

    2015-16 Draft Picks to watch...

    Yup. And the Lakers will end up drafting the one guy who pans out to be an All NBA/future HOF game changer type.

    Scooby wins the Bronko Nagurski Award!!!

    Well deserved award. He's certainly the UA defender I've worried about most since Teddy Bruschi.

    Sun Bowl: Sun Devils v. Blue Devils

    Aubrun's OC is apparently a candidate for the Tulsa HC job, so that may help eliminate another option as well.

    Sun Bowl: Sun Devils v. Blue Devils

    It may not be practical, but it ought to be the goal. Who knows how long RichRod will be around anyhow. ASU should get the majority of the top players from north of the Gila River if they want to be a top program. Under Koetter and Erickson I believe ASU got something like 25% of those guys...

    Sun Bowl: Sun Devils v. Blue Devils

    That A. sounds like spin and B. is a dumb strategy if true. It's fine to recruit Texas, but for ASU to be successful recruiting priorities 1 and 2 need to be AZ and SoCal. The Big 12 and SEC are already entrenched in Texas, not a lot of kids are going to pick ASU over LSU, UT, TAMU, OU, etc...

    Sun Bowl: Sun Devils v. Blue Devils

    Hopefully we don't see a repeat of last years bowl debacle. ASU should be able to handle Duke, but the way the Devils have played recently, who knows. My soon to be brother in law went to Duke, he's not much of a sports fan but I'm trying to convince him to make the trip with me as some kind...

    UA's Bowl Possibilities

    They're also currently projecting TCU in the Rose Bowl, it's safe to say those aren't updated. UofA is right on the bubble, because of the Boise St thing, they could get bumped. For the Orange, Fiesta, Cotton and Peach you have 8 slots. Baylor, TCU, Boise St, Michigan St and Mississippi St...

    Goodbye U.S. Airways Center, Hello ?

    I actually don't mind "Gila River Arena" because it's not "Gila River CASINO Arena". I actually think it sounds great. Just like I like "Chase Field" because it's not "Chase Bank Field." I would have been fine with "Talking Stick Arena" or something like that. But "Talking Stick Resort...

    Goodbye U.S. Airways Center, Hello ?

    Talking Stick Resort Arena: https://twitter.com/miagarciafox10/status/539890368766959616/photo/1 Bleck. Named for a resort miles and miles away. Lame.

    Territorial Cup 2014

    I think 1986 was the most recent one if I recall correctly. David Shaw is 3-0 vs Jim Mora, so lets hope Stanford wins.

    Territorial Cup 2014

    Just be careful. I went to an ASU-UA baseball game once w/ my step brother, when we returned to our car (which had ASU alumni plates on it), it had been keyed and the tires slashed. Try to sit in the visiting section if you can. Don't taunt people, be low key, try not to get batteries or...

    Washington State v. ASU

    correct. I think USC winning also eliminates UofA. Because even if UofA beats ASU, UofA would end up 7-2 in Conference, but so would SC and SC's next game is a non conference at ND. Obviously SC has the tie breaker against UofA. So....we're pulling hard for the Trojans tonight.

    Arizona State to launch Division I hockey program

    I wonder where they'll play long term, the current place doesn't seem ideal. Could WFA have a rink put in? Though WFA may be over booked as is, so that may be an issue. Maybe the USA Place Arena could have a rink put in. Though I'm not sure they'd want the potential moisture/slipping on...

    Where does Jaelen Strong End Up in the Draft?

    ASU @ Oregon State

    I think OSU is a great matchup for the Devils. If ASU looks flat or God forbid loses it'll likely be due to them overlooking the Beavers, weather, and other intangibles. Mannion is a statue for the most part (has negative career rushing yardage) and OSU's O-line has been poor and injured. ASU...

    Nebraska or Notre Dame?

    Nebraska, its not close. ASU didn't have a loss on its resume going into the Nebraska game. Nebraska was the 2 time defending national champions and hadn't lost in like 2+ years. Plus, ASU controlled the game wire to wire and didn't let Nebraska score.

    Utah at Arizona State

    I agree. But they do have a good defense and have been playing well, so I can understand it. Plus ASU barely beat them last year and one could make the argument that UU was worse last year and ASU is worse this year. I think ASU wins though, setting up a potential College Gameday matchup w/ ND.

    Steve Nash Done For the Season

    I'd love Nash to retire a Sun, but it likely won't happen. Though I played around w/ Trade Machine just for fun. This works under the CBA: Suns send: Gerald Green Tyler Ennis S. Randolph LA Sends: Steve Nash Removal of protections from their 1st round pick Would you as a Suns fan...
