Attended ASU's Scrimmage Today....

Post by AppMan »

Offense won't be nearly as explosive as with AE, but I like what I saw. Moving the chains baby, moving the chains. Lots of new wrinkles and formations, I'll leave it at that. O'line is back only missing 1 starter from last year, 5 RB's who can all get it done, and a WR group that is unbelievably deep and very good. Presley is taking over the starting spot, but all three moved the offense. With all the weapons we can throw at people, those guys do not need to be superstars. The defense is big, fast, and extremely athletic. We have a legit DL with starting ends of 6-2 250 & 6-3 265 backed up by 6-2 235 & 6-3 240. Interior guys rotation of 6-3 295, 6-6 290, 6-1 310, 6-3 285. Starting LB's at 6-2 225, 6-0 235, 6-2 225. D'backs, 6-0 200, 6-2 205, 5-11 190, 6-0 190. By the time he finishes at ASU CB Troy Sanders will be the best DB to ever play at ASU, including Mark LeGree and NFL player Matt Stevens. Speed, speed, and more speed. Special teams look solid with all starters returning from a year ago. After today I am jacked and ready for Sept 4.

Good to hear, and nice update :thumb: Presley has yet to wow me, but I'm hoping this is his year. From what I've read on Appfan.com and goASU.com it sounds like Jackson is good enough to sub for him at any moment if necessary. I hope they can split time.

Sounds like things are looking solid heading into the opener. Hopefully Hillary will be 100% by the fourth.
