When Arizona State football’s Director of Player personal Al Luginbill spoke with the local media at the beginning of June he said that the Sun Devils are still “catching up” with the Class of 2019.
Then, ASU didn’t have one recruit committed to the class. Just under three weeks later, it has five.
The latest is the second local commitment the Sun Devils have garnered under head coach Herm Edwards. Tempe Corona Del Sol wide receiver Ricky Pearsall Jr. announced via Twitter Monday his plans to continue playing football just a few miles away.
The 6-foot-1, 200-pound wideout is a three-star, according to 247Sports, and the site ranks Pearsall as the 22nd-best player in Arizona and 149th among all receivers in the nation.
