ASU has reportedly hired Pitt's Todd Graham as their new HC.

This may be a band-aid fix for ASU as Graham is characterized as a defensive specialist so one might guess the SunDevils will make a hard charge to retain OC Mazzone who's done a great job there, is beloved by Ostweiler, and is reportedly being courted by UCLA and TAMU.

Graham had a nice record @ Tulsa but that was with WVA's Holgorson as his OC. He certainly didn't light the world up @ Pitt in his 1st year.

Will be interesting to see what Mazzone does. He's stated his desire to stay @ ASU, & recently purchased a home there. If he chooses to move on, what will that say about his view of Graham? And even if he stays, will ASU be more than .500 for the next couple of years?

Any folks familiar with Tulsa or Pitt programs willing to weigh in?
