Shaun Aguano is leaving the football dynasty he built at Chandler High School to become the running backs coach at Arizona State, according to a source.
Aguano did not return messages by azcentral sports. He was to meet with his players to inform them on Wednesday morning, according to the source.
Aguano led Chandler to the past three 6A state championships and four in the last five years. Before then, Chandler had not won a state championship since the Arizona Interscholastic Association went into a playoff format in 1959.
Aguano, 48, takes ASU coach Herm Edwards' assistant position left open by John Simon, who resigned to become the wide receivers coach and passing game coordinator at Memphis for former ASU assistant Mike Norvell.
