Forget defense: Can ASU football run the ball this year?

Rob Sale is always on the move at Arizona State practice. The offensive line coach moves from one drill to the next, motivating the program’s beefiest players along the way.

“Nobody gets lined up faster than we do, right?” Sale said last week as the Sun Devils started a drill.

Sale also has a directness to him. Ask what made him settle on ASU’s first-team offensive line and he simply says, “They’re the best players.”

Ask what the Sun Devils need to do to rush the football, and Sale doesn't waste time.

“You have to be committed to run the ball in order to run the ball,” he said.
