In 16 games for WSU, de Laura threw for 2,798 yards and 23 touchdowns with nine interceptions and represents what Fisch can only hope will offer stability at the position (five players attempted a pass last year for Arizona).

Arizona fans will have to wait until the fall to really appreciate how he’s able to turn a broken play into something positive. — Kyle Bonagura

The consensus, at this point, is that either Paul Tyson or Trenton Bourguet will be the Sun Devils’ starting quarterback. Tyson, the great-grandson of legendary coach Paul “Bear” Bryant, arrived as a transfer from Alabama in January, while Bourguet signed with ASU following a prolific high school…
