ATTIRE: Helmets and shorts (ASU wore white helmets with black pitchforks, an indicator for Saturday's game against USC)
LOCATION: Verde Dickey Dome (They moved inside due to the rain, though the kickers did go outside for a brief period.
MEDIA AVAILABILITY: ~15 minutes (one 11-on-11 session)
USING AN UMBRELLA (limited): OL Tyson Rising, DL Ami Latu (still had a big brace on his left knee), LB Christian Sam (wore sneakers instead of cleats). I'm not sure about Latu, but I would not expect Christian Sam to be ready to play against USC.
OTHER PERSONNEL NOTES: RB Jason Lewis was there in a maroon jersey.
TEAM TEMPO:
FIRST-TEAM OFFENSE (10 personnel): Manny Wilkins (QB), Demario Richard/Nick Ralston (RB), N'Keal Harry (WR), Ellis Jefferson (WR), Fred Gammage (WR - slot), Jalen Harvey (WR - slot), Evan Goodman (LT), Sam Jones (LG), AJ McCollum (C), Stephon McCray (RG), Quinn Bailey (RG)
FIRST-TEAM DEFENSE (nickel package): Tashon Smallwood (TIGER), George Lea (NOSE), JoJo Wicker (END), AJ Latu/Koron Crump (DEVIL), DJ Calhoun (WILL), Salamo Fiso (SAM), Laiu Moeakiola (SPUR), J'Marcus Rhodes (Bandit), Armand Perry (FS), Kareem Orr (BC), Bryson Echols/Gump Hayes (FC), Gump Hayes/Robbie Robinson (Nickel)
MADE ME CHUCKLE: It seemed like off the bus the defensive players were trying to settle a heated debate on the age-old question of East vs West Coast rap. I believe Malik Lawal was advocating for the East coast, with Tashon Smallwood making the West's case.
As always, let me know if you have any questions, comments, concerns.
