Jason Lewis, one of the key recruits in Arizona State's 2015 recruiting class, has announced his intention to leave the program.
A 6-3, 249-pound running back from Virginia Beach, Va., Lewis has been a fan favorite ever since he arrived on campus. The former four-star high school prospect, however, had a difficult time getting on the field. This year he was ASU's fourth-team running back, stuck behind junior Demario Richard, junior Kalen Ballage and redshirt-freshman Nick Ralston. Lewis didn't make the dress list for several games, but contributed on special teams in others.
Earlier this month, coach Todd Graham moved Lewis to defense, where he practiced at linebacker.
