Chase Davis - Safety - Little Elm, Texas A three-star safety, Davis will provide depth at one of the most unproven positions on the Sun Devil defense down the road. Davis looks like the textbook safety at 6-foot-2, 185...

ASU Men’s Basketball Four to Flourish in 2022-2023: Desmond Cambridge
JASON BEAN/RGJ / USA TODAY NETWORK 37% from behind-the-arc Under the direction of Bobby Hurley, Arizona State men’s basketball has taken on the moniker of ‘Guard U’ with an emphasis on coaching guards to play with freedom and intensity. The Bobby Hurley style of guard is one that incessantly attacks the defense. He can run sets, but mostly he is called upon to use his own initiative to run the offense. He will slash and cut, kick out to open shooters, or dump off to a big man on the low block. He will play like Remy Martin, Marreon Jackson, and Alonzo Verge Jr....

ASU Football’s Four to Flourish in 2022-2023: Tautala Pesefea Jr.
Zac BonDurant Next up in a cycle of elite run-stoppers Only two teams in the Pac-12 last year (UCLA, Utah) allowed fewer rushing yards per-game than Arizona State (131.5). D.J. Davidson, Tyler Johnson and Shannon Foreman were all core pieces of that successful run defense that have clocked out of the program (at least playing-wise, as Foreman has rejoined the program as a graduate assistant). Jermayne Lole, one of the highest-rated Sun Devil defenders, was tagged to step up post-injury and fill one of the tackle roles, but he transferred to Louisville citing NIL...

ASU Football’s Four to Flourish in 2022-2023: Xazavian Valladay
Mark Henle / USA TODAY NETWORK Next up at tailback. Remember just two years ago when Eno Benjamin’s departure felt like a monumental loss for ASU? The transfer portal days were still raw, but Herm Edwards found a diamond-in-the-rough with Rachaad White coming out of juco. Combine White with a four-star recruit in Chip Trayanum, and the Sun Devils had the lightning-and-thunder tailback tandem that offensive minds covet. White parlayed his success in Tempe into a third-round NFL Draft selection, and Trayanum returned home to his roots in Ohio, both positionally and...
