    Congrats to former ASU greats

    Is this list restricted to football? You have some obvious HOFers from other sports. Reggie comes to mind, so does Jim Palmer.

    Kiss Pitino goodbye. He signed up at Iona.

    As the PWR rankings indicates, a couple things happened that we wanted. Minnesota did lose 1 game to Notre Dame in the 1st round of the B1G, but won 2-1 to advance against Penn St. Minnesota dropped to #17. And good ol' Lake State managed 1 win against Bemidji St, narrowly beating ASU for #11...

    Series sweep of Fresno St. over the weekend. Not a bad team there in Fresno. Their guy Presno (I know, Presno from Fresno) is tied with Torkelson for 5th in HRs...The kid Gonzalez from NMSU is way far out front with 18. ASU-UA game postponed until the 17th. The upcoming weekend series is...

    ASU Baseball 2020

    ASU smoked the Huskers like cheap weed last night, with a load of their fans there. In 5 plate appearances, Tork recorded only 1 AB (SO), 3 walks, 2 runs, and an RBI on a HBP. I think Workman was the only guy who recorded a full game's worth of at-bats, because Nebraska couldn't hit the broad...

    Devils swept Boston College over the last weekend, and squeaked by NMSU in 10. Let me just say the umpiring of that game sucked like [insert simile]. Balking home a run in the 9th for the Aggies? WTF? Y'all should go out and see the games. The stands aren't crowded, it's relaxed, no...

    5. WAY too many runners left on base the whole weekend. FWIW, I was in section 6, and two guys from Oklahoma told me OSU's new 1st base coach is Robin Ventura. :p

    Remembering the words of Wisconsin's iconic coach, Badger Bob Johnson, "It's a great day for hockey!" :cheers: The Devils move up 1 spot in the USCHO poll to #9 nationally, remain #10 in CHI after two sound defeats over Alaska this weekend, 5-0 and 5-2. Noteworthy performances came from...

    ASU Baseball 2020

    Probably thank the Pac-12 Network for that. My impression from seeing 3 of the 4 games is that the offense is just fine. Everyone expected that. Especially the presence on the bases. So they laid an egg against Michigan. In the span of a whole season, I don't think that's a big deal. The...

    Game #1...ASU 4-1 over Villanova at Phoenix Muni. Torkelson with his 1st HR. Some errors let in a run in the middle of the game, but insurance runs in the 7th and 8th proved the difference. Attendance announced at 2,300 or so.

    Since the last update, Sun Devil hockey has done what they needed to do. The January 24th weekend resulted in a split with #8 Clarkson, both OT affairs. This recent weekend, the Devils dispatched Robert Morris University (PA) 5-4 and 3-2 at Oceanside. Johnny Walker (2 goals) and Josh...

    The hot/cold continued after the last post. ASU lost/tied with the Crimson, split a pair with Michigan Tech(U.P.) and swept Brown. ASU is now 2-1-1 against the Ivies. This weekend the Devils swept RIT (Rochester, NY), coming from behind in both games with 3rd period scoring explosions. Star...

    ASU Hockey 2019-2020

    It's been a hot & cold year for the Devils so far. The Denver series was a big one, as was the sweep of #9 Quinnipiac (the team that bounced them from the Frozen Four last year), coupled with lazy losses to tomato cans like Mercyhurst and Alaska. Jr. Johnny Walker is tied for 11th in the NCAA...
