Arizona State Sun Devils football yielded a surprisingly good defense in 2023 thanks to some great additions from the NCAA Transfer Portal and a rock-solid defensive staff led by defensive coordinator Brian Ward. That squad lost several key players including B.J. Green, Dashaun Mallory, Tre Brown, and Ro Torrence, all entrenched starters. There are several key returners at each level of the defense, including Clayton Smith, Pince Dorbah, C.J. Fite, and Shamari Simmons to help soften some of the losses. Kenny Dillingham and the staff were once again aggressive in adding guys through the NCAA Transfer Portal including highly-touted recruits out of high school like Zac Swanson, LT Welch, Cole Martin, and Kamari Wilson, plus more veterans to keep a young, developing group on track. With so many changes and several key returners back in the folds, Arizona State Sun Devils football will again be looking to yield a stout defense and hopefully build off last season's success. Host Richie Bradshaw breaks down each position and why the Sun Devils' defense may be even better and deeper in 2024 on this edition of the Locked On Sun Devils podcast.

An injury-riddled season for Arizona State Sun Devils football in 2023 dramatically impacted their success... perhaps a healthy season could've helped the Sun Devils win a couple more games. The one position impacted the most was the offensive line, a unit with a different starting lineup in every game. The unit entered the offseason needing to get healthy and deeper and it appears that Kenny Dillingham and offensive line coach Saga Tuitele have done just that. With the changes made to a unit that is seemingly two-deep at every position with tons of high-upside players, we're left wondering whether or not the group will directly impact the 2024 season. A young quarterback in Sam Leavitt and a run game that will largely impact the success of the offense's production will need the offensive line to hold its end of the bargain. A better offensive line could lead to more wins we have hypothesized, but it could also be their downfall again this season. Host Richie Bradshaw looks at the offensive line and why they could dictate whether or not the Arizona State Sun Devils football program has a successful season in 2024 on this edition of the Locked On Sun Devils podcast.

Kenny Dillingham insists he wants to run a pro-style attack for Arizona State Sun Devil football in 2024. The team will look much different than year one of the Dilly era from top to bottom, but the tight end position will have some of the biggest changes. The top three from last year, Jalin Conyers, Bryce Pierre, and Messiah Swinson are gone. Incoming transfers Chamon Metayer and Markeston Douglas plus four-star freshman Jayden Fortier will be tasked with filling their shoes. The talent is there, but the group and the rest of the depth are largely unproven and have us wondering several things, like what fair expectations are. Who will be the starter? What does the potential look like? And most importantly, will this core be a focal point of the offense? With tons of potential and none of the answers, host Richie Bradshaw looks at the tight end room and discusses why even an unproven group can still be vital to the offense and maybe even more on this edition of the Locked On Sun Devils podcast.
