TEMPE, Ariz. – Much has changed since Al Luginbill's last tour of duty with Arizona State football as its defensive coordinator from 1982-84. The Valley has grown from one pro sport to four and Al's son, Tom, has grown from a boy running around the ASU practice fields with current Stanford coach David Shaw into a college football analyst for ESPN.
Al, 71, is just starting his third stint in Tempe as Sun Devil football's Director of Player Personnel. On June 1, he sat down with local media members for a revealing Q&A that detailed his new role and how it fits into coach Herm Edwards vision for the program.
