This week brings us both Friday the 13th and Valentine's Day. Such is the duality of Sun Devil fandom, so we unveil our Horrors and Hearts list of the ASU football games that we loved...and those that remain cursed.
Play ball! Coming off a postseason appearance, Sun Devil baseball is eyeing a deeper run this spring. We take an in-depth preview of the 2026 season with DevilsDigest.com reporter George Lund (16:15).
Do you believe in ghosts? Arizona State fans do. Myles "Ghost" Rowser haunted the secondary for the Sun Devils the last two seasons, scaring receivers with frighteningly fierce hits. Now, he's aiming to bring that reign of terror to the NFL. On this episode, Ghost and I discuss his ASU career, his rising stock after a good showing at the Shrine Bowl, his NFL Draft prep, and more.
Arizona State was active in the transfer portal, signing a class of 25 that included some big names. Brad sat down for some 1-on-1 conversations with some of those notable new Devils.

After a couple of rebuilding seasons, Arizona State softball got back to the postseason last year and heads into 2026 with eyes on making a deep run. One of the keys to that turnaround has been the play of Tanya Windle. A Peoria native, she dreamed of playing for the Sun Devils since she was young. However, life threw a curve, and she ended up elsewhere to begin her college career. But a dynamic freshman season, coupled with a new staff in Tempe, helped her realize her dream. Now, she's among the nation's elite outfielders. On this episode, we discuss her softball journey, her approach at the plate, why ASU means so much, and a fateful countdown on a whiteboard, and more.
2026 will be a new era for Sun Devil quarterbacks, and all eyes will be on the position in spring and fall camps to see who will take the reins. Among the hopefuls is redshirt freshman Cam Dyer, who is the only returner in the group. His high school career saw him put up video game numbers, a four-star recruiting rating, and two Gatorade Player of the Year awards in his home state of New Mexico. He committed to ASU prior to his senior year, interestingly as a wide receiver, not a quarterback. However, a torn ACL near the end of his prep days had him begin his time in Tempe rehabbing. Making the switch back to quarterback, he put in the work, recovered, and ended the year as the Sun Devils' top backup. He'll now get a chance to make his mark on the offense this offseason. On this episode, we discuss the lessons and growth through his rehab, his football journey, the developing rapport of the quarterback room, and much more.
ASU landed 25 new players from the 2026 transfer portal window, from high-profile All-conference honorees to young players brimming with potential. Ralph Amsden joins Brad Denny to discuss their lists of five new Sun Devils who are intriguing them the most.
The college sports landscape continues to be a wild mess. Several months into the post-House and revenue-sharing era, where do things stand? We talk with NIL agent and founder of Activate Sports Management Peter Boyle for an in-depth look into what's changed, what's right, what's wrong, and what's up next (13:33) We also get to know two new Sun Devil transfer portal additions: Running back David Avit (2:46) and tight end Kristian Ingman (1:08:05).
Mark those calendars, the 2026 schedule has dropped. We break down ASU's full slate of games, including a daunting road schedule, a lengthy run without a bye, and a chance for a strong finish. Plus, we share some thoughts on Bobby Hurley's depressed postgame comments.
The portal window is closed, and the action is starting to settle down. With ASU's roster (mostly) set, we take a deep dive into the Sun Devils' position groups to break down how they stand after the flurry of portal signings.
All good things must come to an end, and such is Justin Wodtly's time with the Sun Devils. Over his two seasons in Tempe, the former Cincinnati transfer became a key part of the defensive line and a key voice in the locker room, and he ended his final season on a six-game sack streak. Now, it's time to chase his NFL dream. On this episode, we discuss his Sun Devil career, the impact it made on his life, his NFL Draft prep, and much more.
ASU's transfer portal class is nearly complete, and it looks to bring significant talent to Tempe. After a look at the newest commits, we go in-depth for an expert breakdown with Cole Topham (13:48) on key offensive pieces, including quarterback Cutter Boley and wide receivers Omarion Miller, Reed Harris, and Raiden Vines-Bright. Plus, we talk with new ASU running back Marquis Gillis (37:34).
ASU's hot start to the transfer portal continues. After a notable first wave of commitments that included some star power, the Sun Devils landed a bevy of talented players to address key roster needs. We break down the latest additions and which positions still need attention in the coming days.
The transfer portal is wide open, and Arizona State is starting to bring some talented players to Tempe. We break down the five big commitments so far, what they could potentially bring, and who else may soon join them as Sun Devils. Then we honor the best (and worst) of 2025 with our season awards.
The season is over, but the action continues. We recap ASU's thrilling shorthanded shootout in the Sun Bowl against Duke before discussing the official opening of the transfer portal window, including some important early visitors who may become future Sun Devils.
The 2025 season is officially in the books. As he made his way back from El Paso, Brad Denny gave a rundown of the big takeaways from ASU's shootout loss to Duke in the Sun Bowl, who stood out, and the complicated evaluation of the 2025 season.
Down in the west Texas town of El Paso...the Sun Devils will meet the Blue Devils. Again. We take an in-depth look at the Sun Bowl matchup, plus we go behind Duke lines with Blue Devil insider Anna Snyder (20:17). We also talk with ASU wide receiver Derek Eusebio (1:02:42) and quarterback Cam Dyer (11:54).
Arizona State head coach Kenny Dillingham has signed a new amended contract to add additional resources to the Sun Devils, and also shutting down the interest from the Michigan Wolverines. We discuss and break down the impact of the move, and then hear from Kenny Dillingham himself on what the deal means, the future of ASU football, and what else needs to happen to continue the progress.
As the world slows down for the holidays, the rumor mill is speeding up. Could Kenny Dillingham really leave Arizona State to coach the Michigan Wolverines? We discuss and outline what ASU's homegrown coach may actually be saying and what he's purposefully not. We also talk with two talented young Sun Devil defenders, linebacker Martell Hughes (24:56) and cornerback Joseph Smith (28:45).
2025 was my 15th season covering Arizona State football. Over that span, there are few—if any—players that I've covered more impactful, on and off the field, than Xavion Alford. Despite being ruled ineligible by the NCAA in 2023 after his transfer, he was a key part in establishing ASU's culture. He then took the field last year and was an All-Big 12 first team performer. Although an injury kept him sidelined for most of this past year, he still contributed in an off field role and recently declared for the NFL Draft. On this episode, we discuss his decision, his career at ASU, how his time as a Sun Devil shaped him, and more.
