Movements and catchphrases are cool and all, but unless they are followed by tangible production, they really don't mean much. Thankfully for Arizona State, the Texas-to-Tempe movement is bearing fruit. Among many Texans that have started making their mark as Sun Devils is defensive tackle C.J. Fite. He played a key reserve role as a true freshman in 2023, and heading into this season, C.J. has emerged as a team leader well positioned to be a key contributor to the ASU defense.

On this episode, C.J. and I discuss his growth as a freshman, his growing leadership role, his new position coach, the Dallas chicken spot that needs a Valley location, and much more.
