NFL DRAFT: Paul Fanaika, Troy Nolan Drafted in the 7th Round, UPDATE Rudy Signed by Cowboys, Michael Jones by Texans
Paul Fanaika has landed with the Philadelphia Eagles, getting picked with the 4th pick in the seventh round of today's NFL Draft. He was pick #213 overall. Fanaika was a rock for ASU, starting 35 consecutive games to end his collegiate career. Good pickup in the late rounds for the Eagles. Troy...
Hittin' the Links
So, quite a somber week of news around the Valley. I've been avoiding it, but might as well get it all out of the way. Coach Bruce Snyder died, as we all know. 69 is too young, and he paid for his years of service in the desert before a lot was known about UV rays. Some great ASU related...
How The Barack Obama Honorary Degree Fiasco Could Have Been Avoided
I have yet to mention this on the site, but since it a slow weekend for ASU sports, I find it pertinent to bring up the most important ASU-related story of the month, an issue that is partisan and requires a bit of tact (yet will not receive any in this space). Last week, the university announced...
Hitting the Links: Harden's Gone Edition
Happy Wednesday. Bye James. Josh Spence dominated the Huskies, striking out 14 and Pat Murphy got his 600th win. Erickson insists the QB job is still up for grabs. Sullivan is getting the most reps though. ASU baseball #1? Dennis Erickson likes burgers and the Rose Bowl. Natyazhko's top...
Hitting the Links
Slow time of year with baseball coming along, and all the other major sports on hold for the moment. Some links for you: The most interesting story to me? This one here at AZC, which talks about ASU building this $22 million dollar Weatherup center to "woo top recruits and maintain top flight...

A Quick Look at the Pluses and Minuses from Today's Game
Round 1: Win. Here is a quick look at who I saw as the pluses and minuses of the game against Temple. Pluses: Derek Glasser - Glasser was a dynamic threat from the field in the first half, while also finding scoring opportunities for his teammates. Before getting knocked in the noggin, it...
6. Arizona State Sun Devils vs. 11. Temple Owls, 1st Round of NCAA Tournament
Friday game in Miami, Florida. Game should start around 2:45 or 3 PM Eastern time, or 11:45-12 here in Arizona. We were the last game announced. I was quite nervous for a minute there. Some kind of massive clerical error would have ended my life. Temple went 11-5 in the regular season of the...
Crash and Burn: Sun Devils Drop 3rd Straight Game, Losing To Stanford 74-64
From my vantage point in the student section, I have a few succinct points to make about our embarrassing 74-64 loss to mediocre Stanford (17-11). First of all, there was no support for the team in the stands. Maybe it was at half capacity, but Wells Fargo Arena felt like a mausoleum from the tip....
#21 ASU versus Stanford
We need to win these next two games. It does not really matter, in the bigger scope of things, because even if we lose both of them we are tourney bound...however, it is big for the entire team. Just how we came out of the last sweeping by the Washington schools, we need to respond again.For...
