We're just over a week from watching Arizona State play its first snaps of the 2025-26 college football season when Northern Arizona visits Tempe on Aug. 30. Yesterday in our countdown, we brought you the story of transfer diamond Robert Nelson.
Today, we're going to talk about running back D.J. Foster and the lasting legacy he continues to leave on ASU to this day.
Foster played four seasons in Tempe from 2012-15, landing with the program as a four-star recruit out of Saguaro High School in Scottsdale. He set a state high school record with 60 rushing touchdowns as a senior, catching the eye of then-head coach Todd Graham.
