Ray Anderson Resigns as ASU Athletic Director

ASU's defensive resurgence in 2024 was spurred by several new faces. That included the man who was the "quarterback" of the defense, linebacker Keyshaun Elliott, who quickly became a team leader and the one wearing the in-helmet communication device. It was only fitting, as Keyshaun was an accomplished high school quarterback before becoming one of the Big 12's best defenders. With a year in the scheme under his belt, he's poised to make another major leap and help the Sun Devils build upon last year's Playoff run. On this episode, Keyshaun and I discuss his football journey, his growth in the defense, The Werewolves, hard hits, his golf game, and much more.

The Texas-to-Tempe movement is running stronger than ever these days, and one of the first additions from that pipeline has played a significant role in Arizona State's resurgence.

With a strong spring showing, Abney appears poised to level up his game once again in 2025. On this episode, Keith and I discuss the art of playing corner, his growth over his time in Tempe, young DBs to watch, and more.

A career defined by resilience, hard work, and giving back. Lawrence Guy has never been the flashiest or most-heraled player, but what he has accomplished is nothing short of incredible. After three years at ASU, the defensive tackle bounced around the NFL, putting in the work before becoming a long-time starter with the New England Patriots, a stint that earned him a Super Bowl ring. Perhaps more importantly, he has been dedicated to giving back to the community. From sharing his journey with learning differences to the great work done by the Lawrence Guy Family Foundation, he embodies everything a Sun Devil is meant to be.
