Not an "interim" basis. 5 year deal according to Gambo. No mention of Powers or his staff at all, my guess is they are all gone.

Nothing official from ASU yet, but the Avs replacing him already on their staff means it must be close. Probably just finalizing the details at this point.

Doesn’t look ideal but at least it’s good the school is done with Powers for good.

The way ASU has been playing, I expect them to lose by 4 to 5 TDs.

Any chance we can change the QB prior to that? Does Dilly think we have a chance ..lol?

Atleast gamble and put in a new QB.

I don’t want to say the end zone video boards have cursed us, but it’s definitely something to watch if we continue to underperform at one.

EDIT: Correction - The boards were not installed between the Morgan State and Baylor games, but they are new this season. The displays were much darker and muted for the Morgan State game, so I didn't notice them. Then they turned up the brightness and now they are very noticeable at games. In any case, this is the first season with the new, ugly boards and it's also the first season that Dilly has said the team is underperforming relative to their talent and health (he said last week that all of his previous ASU teams overperformed).

One loss doesn't define a program!

Forks up!

Hey guys,

Looking to pull together 2-3 people on campus to enter the 2027 NFL Big Data Bowl on Kaggle.

If you aren't familiar, it's the main analytics contest the NFL runs every year. This year's dataset links player tracking sensors from the NFL Combine directly to regular season performance. Since we're ASU students, we qualify for the University Track ($45k prize pool), and the finalists get flown out to the Combine in Indy to present directly to NFL front offices and analytics directors.

About me: I'm a Data Analytics / Finance major in Barrett. Right now I'm building a custom NIL (Name, Image, and Likeness) Valuation Engine to model financial value and draft projection models using Python, SQL, and Streamlit.

Who I need: Mainly looking for people who actually follow football and want to build something legitimate. Looking for team members who fit at least one of these:

• Football knowledge / Domain expert: You understand coverage schemes, route trees, Combine mechanics, or film so we can ask smart questions that NFL front offices care about.
• Python or R: Experience with feature engineering, predictive modeling (xgboost, lightgbm, etc.), or data pipelines.
• Data Viz & Presentation: Skilled in making clean plots (matplotlib, seaborn, ggplot2) and comfortable presenting technical ideas clearly.

Format & Timeline: Deadline is Jan 6, 2027. We'll collaborate on Discord/GitHub, plus meet up on campus in Tempe (Hayden Library or MU) to work together and practice our presentation skills so we're ready if we make the final stage in Indy.

If you're interested in sports analytics, data science, or trying to win a piece of $45k, shoot me a DM with your background, tech stack/GitHub, or favorite NFL team.

I'm looking for 4 tickets in any of the club suites (San Tan, Stadium, Legends, Coaches) for the Kansas State game.

Shoot me a DM if you're looking to sell or know anyone who might be.

Go Devils!

Attended last night’s game, and it was tough. I noticed how awful the fans/students behaved in the stands as the night went on.

A lot of ticket holders in my section were pissed at people (mostly 18-25 something students?) who were obviously looking for open seats and then socializing, standing and blocking views, vaping, etc.

When called out, it often got unnecessarily confrontational with people yelling, and getting into each other’s faces. And honestly I get why both sides would be upset. People who paid money for tickets deserve to enjoy the game. Students want to connect and enjoy/support their team but the student section couldn’t house them all. The spillover was expected.

I think management knows this because Security was not checking tickets when called over and my guess is their hands are tied. So what to do? Increase the size of the student area? That means fewer tickets sold and revenue. Check tickets anytime someone enters a section? That would require far more security agents and oversight, which increases cost.

I’m not exactly sure what the best answer or solution is here but last night made it clear that there is a problem and something needs to be done. As a season ticket holder, I’m not sure I would purchase again or recommend season tickets if the problem continues.

No D unfortunately, no special teams, no offense....did I cover it all?

Pathetic coaching as well.

Boley is not the future here..get someone else.

This season is done. May get to a bowl game but with that D , I wouldn't put any money on them.

Bring in more NIL money period and buy better recruits or enjoy next few yrs of mediocrity..

With the way the team is playing I think making a bowl game could be a challenge, I don’t think the conference and definitely the cfp are realistic. If nothing changes I think we finish with about 5-6 wins and Fette transfers which would be catastrophic considering how stagnant the offense has looked.

Some perspective:

- Starting the season off against an opponent that is so overmatched that you shorten the game, followed by a trip to Kyle Field where your team maxes out in the first half and then collapses in the second, followed by an immediate flight after the game to London where you beat a Jayhawk team that outplayed you but ultimately made too many mistakes, followed by a bye week is going to leave your team in a weird place mentally. The stadium was rocking at kickoff and the vibes were good, but as soon as Harris dropped an easy catch inside the 10, it became obvious that the team didn't have its head on straight.

- Boley seems like a nice kid, but he's a golden anchor. He's got all the measurables and arm talent to be a top NFL prospect and it's pretty clear Kenny is convinced he can turn him into the next Bo Nix. The problem is, the kid has no mojo. Sure, he can make any throw on the field, but he can also miss any throw as well. The problem the coaching staff is facing is that if Boley developed, they would have had a CFP-caliber offense. Mikey Keene has a much lower ceiling, but a much higher floor and this team could still go bowling with him pulling the trigger. Then there's Fette, who has talent and appears like the potential future of the team (if those kinds of players still exist in the portal era), but going with him likely means sacrificing the season.

- I'm still processing what happened on the defensive side of things. The offense didn't help with the missed opportunities and the turnovers, but guys were running free all across the secondary and the Bears broke off multiple 60+ yard touchdown runs. Going into tonight, I had been most confident in the defense after watching them do great work against A&M and Kansas. The biggest head-scratcher is how the defense went from bad in the first half to an absolute disaster in the second half. Whatever adjustments were made at halftime only made things worse.

- At the end of the day, it's college football and college kids ride the ups and downs of life. Heck, even NFL teams struggle to perform consistently week in and week out. This was a bad night where a few early bad plays led to things snowballing and ended in a blow out. This team will probably look much better next week against Hawaii, will suffer a few more painful losses, and will probably pull off a nice upset or two along the way.

- The coaching staff has been a real strength for the program over the last few years and, much like last season when injuries derailed the season, now we'll get to see how they handle this adversity. Last season the challenge was assembling a scrappy roster after many of the stars went down. This season it looks like the challenge will figuring out the right combination and scheme to maximize the talents of a bunch of players who could be stars.

Good night y'all. Go Devils!

I screen recorded this last season when Kenny said this and it’s bothered me ever since. And sure enough, ASU shit their pants the following week vs Houston.

Elite teams and coaches bring that intensity and focus every single week. Nothing that happened the week prior should affect that. Kenny is the type of coach who needs fuel. In 2024 when picked last in Big 12, he used that as locker room fuel they fed off of. He’ll use this game tonight as fuel for next week. This contributes to the ups and downs we’ve seen, and will continue to see under Kenny.

In year 4, the stadium is empty in the 3rd quarter for our conference home opener. There’s 12 mins left in the game and Baylor has already amassed 500 yards of offense. Todd Graham lost games that weren’t nearly as bad as this in Year 4 and it put him on the hot seat. Why is Kenny exempt from the same pressure each of his predecessors dealt with? This is a total embarrassment and Kenny should be put on blast for it.

Anyone else root for everyone in our conference to take L’s so our path to the conference title game is easier? I just figure no team in our conference is going to get seriously looked at as a wild card team so us winning as many games as we can and everyone losing out seems like the best way to have a shot at making the playoffs.

Ill take it
