TEMPE — Arizona State DC Brian Ward is officially going into his fourth season in the role with the program, although changes have been made to his overall role. For the first time, Ward will not be safeties coach due to an amendment in head coach Kenny Dillingham’s contract that allowed for a larger salary pool for assistants – leading to the hiring of more coaches on the defensive side of the ball.
Ward discussed that transition, how the incoming talent has performed, and leadership within the defense during post-practice media availability on Saturday.
