ASU tries something new for spring game

Blake Anderson's latest twist to Arkansas State's final spring scrimmage came the way a lot of his ideas to create excitement around his team do -- late at night when he lets his mind wander.

"Oh, something hits me at 2 in the morning when I should be sleeping," Anderson said. "I just wanted to do something different than what we've done."

In an effort to upstage, or at least deviate from, the last two spring games in which ASU auctioned off the right to coach the team, Anderson handpicked three celebrity coaches. The school also sold the rights to fans to serve as guest assistant coaches for tonight's scrimmage.
