Dennis Erickson says Arizona State football is reaching ‘turning point’ on offense

Arizona State will complete its offensive transformation to a faster system using more motion and no-huddle under its new offensive coordinator, coach Dennis Erickson said. “It’s going to be a huge turning point offensively in our program,” said Erickson, going into his fourth season with the burden of 9-15 record in the past two seasons. “It’ll be completely different than what people have seen, and you’ll see it in the spring from Day 1.” Spring practice is March 30-April 24. Offensive coordinator Noel Mazzone will run a system similar to those at Texas Tech and Houston that builds on the spread principles that ASU moved toward last season. – Arizona Republic
