  ASU has had some good teams but NEVER a great team! They were successful in the WAC but not dominating! As an ASU grad I often thought Kush would get us over the hill but all that he could muster was to get us part way up the hill! ASU needs a fanbase; we have so many transplants that you seldom see an ASU born and bred fan.Transplants fill the stadiums but they are satisfied with 6 and 7 win seasons as long as their home state team kicks the snot out of ASU! Graham will be no different; you can't tell me that this is his "Cherry Pick"! If this job was so great there would have been a line of coaches backed up to I-10 with resumes
  in hand! Graham will be history in 4-5 years and ASU back to square 1! Who out there will trust this coach! I want to; but it is going to take "7-8 GOOD YEARS"

  [sad] Let's just say that Lisa Love wasn't and still isn't ready for the position of AD at a major DI school.

  I think a huge problem is the recruiting. ASU consistantly recruits thugs and gangsters. Its no wonder that so many players are getting put on probation and getting kicked off the teams. The attitudes of the players go a long way to unmotivate and create hostility to the coaches and staff. This sends all the other talented players running for the doors.

  I would much rather see a lesser talented person on the team who is willing to work hard, take orders, and be a good team mate, than a whiney punk who only cares about himself.
