I'm with 'ya on 'The Bigs' on both sides. They generally take longer to develop but when they do, it's fine to see.
I'd place a 'probationary tag' on Mr Dietch, but he 'grades out well somehow as I've seen around. Holdings - False Starts a-plenty - his name gets called too much for a SR/SR! I do hope he advances forward into the league.
My most 'under-rated' would be the young, fresh-faced 2nd/3rd String Defensive Linemen ASU has. Fresh legs and a rabid desire to hustle-their-game-out from Moore / Norman-Lott / BJ Moore / Stansberry / Lambert / Cooper / A. Johnson and Who else (sorry) == IMO, what a 'bench' to bring in for spirited and vicious 'reps' on-field.
As well, a second note == to the young LBs as well.
Maybe, hopefully, Jermaine Lole and Travel Moore can return form further leadership in '22. We'll see.
ASU IS still a very young team throughout. The Greatest ASU Football Teams I've known of in my 40Yrs as a STH; had serious pursuit speed and DEPTH.
Defense wins Championships. I love ASU's depth of young talent across the board.
Go Devils.
