Nobody loves a good ole fashion debate over the preseason all-honors lists, and the preseason All-PAC-12 lists have been released for four teams. Of those four teams, eight Arizona State Sun Devils football stars made the lists. Of them, return specialist DJ Taylor made both First-Team and Second-Team as a punt returner and kick returner, respectively (Taylor was the only First-Team selection for the Arizona State Sun Devils football program). The Second-Team selections included running back Xazavien Valladay, offensive lineman LaDarius Henderson, and linebacker Merlin Robertson. The Third-Team had offensive lineman Ben Scott and linebacker Kyle Soelle. And finally, Fourth-Team had defensive lineman Nesta Jade-Silvera and safety Khoury Bethley. Host Richie Bradshaw gives his thoughts on these eight Arizona Stae Sun Devils football stars and their respective rankings on the preseason All-PAC-12 lists, plus seven more players who could surprise and make waves in 2022.
