The Sun Devils’ first Pac-10 championship was there for the taking, but a 73-70 overtime loss to Washington likely put an end to that dream. What do the standings look like now and where does ASU fit into the NCAA Tournament picture?
The stretch run of the Pac-10 basketball season begins tonight—and both the Sun Devils men’s and women’s teams control their own destinies. Fortunately, Greg and Mark are here to break down both team’s finishes.
A big weekend by a pair of powerful Sun Devils has us feeling a little bit better about Ike Davis and Brett Wallace’s absence from the heart of ASU’s lineup. Can Jason Kipnis and Carlos Ramirez keep up the pace?
As you probably know, Michael Crow has imposed mandatory unpaid furloughs for all ASU employees to help the university make budget.
The furloughs extend to the athletic department. For example, Dennis Erickson will lose $20,800 of his $450,000 annual salary and Herb Sendek will lose $13,600 of his $292,000 annual salary during 12-day furloughs.
To our knowledge, neither has made a peep publicly, choosing instead to pitch in and do their part to help see the university through this mess.
And then you’ve got UConn coach Jim Calhoun. Enjoy the video.
