The sound of helmets cracking and shoulder pads crunching fills the clear air of the Rim Country this week as the 2015 Arizona State University Sun Devils continue the tradition of summer training at Camp Tontozona, developed nearly 50 years ago by legendary coach Frank Kush.

It’s Tontozona time in Rim Country BY TERESA MCQUERREY RIM REVIEW EDITOR

It’s here — Tontozona time. Welcome! All those Sun Devil faithful can once again drink in the cool, clean air of the Rim Country, dip a toe in the icy waters of Tonto Creek and get a close look at their boys in maroon and gold as Arizona State University’s football team returns for its annual visit to Camp Tontozona Aug. 11-15. Practices are open to the public free of charge. But be careful about where you park — don’t block driveways and don’t put your vehicle where it could hinder passage of others on the road or on private property. The team is scheduled to arrive on Tuesday afternoon, Aug. 11. Practice begins at 8:30 a.m., Wednesday, Aug. 12 through Friday, Aug. 14, although times are subject to change.

In the event of heavy rain, practice could be moved to Rumsey Park in Payson. The park can be reached by going west through the light at the junction of Highways 260 and 87. Follow the road to the four-way stop signs at the intersection of Longhorn and McLane roads, and turn north, the park is a few blocks down on the left. Another route would be to turn right at the 260-87 light, get in the left lane and turn left at the second light, which is Forest Drive. Follow Forest until you reach the stop sign, then turn left on McLane Road and the park is a few blocks down on the right — the public library is at the front of the park, so you can’t miss it). The week concludes with a controlled intrasquad scrimmage at 10 a.m., Saturday, Aug. 15. Prior to the big scrimmage, which draws a couple thousand of the Sun Devil Nation to the Rim Country, the Town of Payson will hold an ASU Football Pep Rally to

The legendary former Arizona State University Sun Devils football coach Frank Kush talks to players at 2014 Camp Tontozona.

Frank Kush – The makings of a legend BY MAX FOSTER SPECIAL TO THE REVIEW

For 19 years, Frank Kush ruled Camp Tontozona much like General Patton commanded his troops — with a hard driven personality and a colorful image. In fact, Patton’s nickname of “Old Blood and Guts” could apply as well to Kush, who Arizona State players during his coaching tenure (1958-79) reverently called “The Man.” Now 86 years old, Kush continues his yearly pilgrimages to Tontozona, a football mecca for Sun Devils fans. But instead of barking orders, sending players scampering up Mt. Kush and running Bull in the Ring drills as he once did, Kush sits at the northeast end of the Tontozona football field carefully scrutinizing practice sessions. For old-timers who knew Kush in his glory years, it’s difficult to see today’s fans stroll past the former coach never acknowledging his presence or bothering to stop, shake his hand and say, “Thanks for the memories.” If those Johnny-come-latelys could journey back in time to the Arizona State University campus in the early 1960s — just when Coach Kush was turning what was a small-college program into one of the elite programs in the country — they would better understand why he is held in such high regard by former players and the veteran ASU fan base. Time travelers would quickly learn that it was a burning desire to succeed that helped Kush become an All-American guard at Michigan State, despite weighing only 175 pounds. They would also read stories in the State Press, the school newspaper, that Kush hailed from an impoverished Pennsylvania family; his father died when he was 15 and he was the oldest of 10 children. Kush once told a reporter writing a Tempe history project, “We had no electricity, we had no hot water and we were lucky to eat three meals as we know ’em today.” In the same interview, he went on to praise his father saying, “My dad was quite a disciplinarian and he required all of us to go to school.” Knowing his father’s insistence on an education, Kush accepted a football scholarship in 1948 to Washington and Lee University in Virginia, but transferred a semes-

ter later to Michigan State. There, coaches Biggie Munn and Duffy Dougherty helped mold his life and hard-nosed coaching philosophy. It was an “old school” attitude that included a strong work ethic, trustworthiness and responsibility. In the 1940s and on into the 1960s, every male student at land grant colleges and universities were required to take a minimum of two years of Reserve Officers’ Training Corps (ROTC). As a junior at MSU and after two years of ROTC, Kush decided to enroll for the full four years of training. He said, he decided to take the final two years because advanced cadets were paid $27.50 a month and that was money he needed. Little did he know at the time that his ROTC training would eventually lead to life as a football coach. After graduation from Michigan State and wrapping up an illustrious football career that included playing on a national championship team and being named AllAmerican, Kush went into the Army as an infantry officer. While stationed at Fort Benning, Ga., he was appointed coach of the base football team, which turned out to be his introduction to coaching. After being discharged from the Army in 1955, Kush’s aspirations were to become a high school biology and P.E. teacher. Later, however, he accepted an offer to be an assistant coach to Dan Devine who had just taken over at Arizona State. After Devine departed four years later to become coach at the University of Missouri, Kush, then just 29, was named the head coach of the Sun Devils. During his 22 seasons at ASU, Kush posted a 176-54-1 record to become the nation’s 19th most winning Division I coach. He ranks seventh in the nation in most victories at one school. During his tenure at ASU, there were also those who took potshots at Kush, claiming he was too demanding and too tough on the young players. But it was Kush’s reputation as a disciplinarian that attracted talented players, especially those that had aspirations of playing professionally. Kush has said, “I felt that I was the extension of their parents when we recruited these kids. I’m talking about

social responsibilities. We didn’t put up with any nonsense. “For example, drugs. We had very little of it. We had six (players with) drug problems — marijuana. I gave them an opportunity to resolve their problems, and I got them medical advice and everything else. And I told ’em, ‘If you don’t do it, if you don’t straighten up your act, you’re gonna lose your scholarship.’ “Bing. Five of ’em lost their scholarships, because they did not change their habits.” Kush’s demanding ways paid huge dividends. The Sun Devils strung together 21 consecutive wins from 1969 to 1971 and had other winning streaks of 13 and 12 games (twice). In 1975, the Devils finished 12-0, beat Nebraska in the Fiesta Bowl and wrapped up the season ranked No. 2 in the nation. Most impressive about Kush’s teams is that they were almost always smaller, but faster than their opponents. They were also better conditioned than their foes and were at their best in big games and clutch moments. Throughout his career at ASU, Kush made headlines by sending All-Americans like Danny White, John Jefferson, Mike Haynes, Curley Culp and Woody Green to the pro ranks. He’s also the man who spearheaded the building of Camp Tontozona as a preseason football camp, which — despite being abandoned for four years by former ASU coach Dennis Erickson — is widely considered one of the premier university training camps in the country. Many of the football players under Kush attributed their mental toughness to the rugged training sessions they endured at the scenic mountain retreat. For the mainstream ASU students during the tumultuous ’60s and ’70s, Kush was a breath of fresh air among those who didn’t agree with the counterculture and social-political upheaval of the era. Kush isn’t as spry as he once was, but continues to serve as chairman of the Frank Kush Youth Foundation, works as a special assistant at ASU and is a much anticipated motivational speaker at Arizona high school football banquets. He’s also hailed as the grand old man of Tontozona and ASU football.

Future pros tough to tab at Tontozona BY MAX FOSTER SPECIAL TO THE REVIEW

Since the early 1960s when the Arizona State football program first began churning out future professional stars like Charlie Taylor, Tony Lorick, Herman “Ham Handed” Harrison and Jerry Smith, Camp Tontozona has had a reputation as a training site where fans can get a free and up close look at future NFL players. The glitch, however, is that it’s almost impossible to predict which ASU players at Tontozona will go on to professional fame. Some arrive at ASU as can’t miss superstars and others are considered marginal prospects. Who could have predicted at the 1997 camp that then freshman Adam Archuleta was a pro prospect in the making or that undersized, underrated Pat Tillman (1994) had the talent to play in the NFL. Quarterback Jake Plummer (1993) was a fan favorite from the get-go, but many believed his scrambling style of play wouldn’t be successful in the NFL. Danny White (1971), the son of a legendary Sun Devil running back had the bloodline and the genes, but few suspected he would go on to play 15 years of professional football. During his early years at Tontozona, he was more respected as a baseball prospect than a football player. All these former Devils eventually became rags-to-riches football stories. Archuleta walked on to the ASU football program as a linebacker out of Chandler High School. Although he had won all-state honorable mention honors at CHS, he had been very lightly recruited. He played as a reserve during his redshirt freshman season, but won a starting job in 1998. After three seasons, he blossomed into the Pac-10 Defensive Player of the Year. The St. Louis Rams drafted Archuleta in 2001 as the 20th overall pick. During his five years playing strong safety with the Rams he excelled in coach Lovie Smith’s Cover 2 defensive scheme. After the 2005 season, he was one of the most sought after free agent safeties eventually signing a $30 million contract with the Redskins. Archuleta finished his career with the Bears and Raiders. Tillman was among the most popular players at Tontozona for four years, most-

ly because of his reckless style of play and unbridled enthusiasm. After winning Pac-10 Defensive Player of the Year honors at ASU, Tillman was selected in the 1998 NFL draft as the 226th pick. As a rookie, the Cards moved him from linebacker to safety allowing him to start 10 of 16 games. At one point in his career he turned down a five-year, $9 million contract offer from the Rams out of allegiance to the Cardinals. In June 2002, during the aftermath of the Sept. 11 attacks on America, he enlisted in the U.S. Army and served tours of duty in Iraq and Afghanistan.

His subsequent death on May 28, 2004 by friendly fire was the subject of worldwide attention. A favorite ploy of fans at Tontozona to meet Tillman was to stand by the sideline water stations and when he took a break, strike up a conversation or simply say, “Hello 42.” Tillman most always obliged by exchanging a few words much to the delight of fans, especially the younger ones. Jake Plummer was also a fan favorite at Camp Tontozona, mostly because his scrambling style reminded many people of legendary quarterback Fran Tarkington. When Jake the Snake had the ball, fans

knew anything could happen. Rumors at camp during his heyday were that he was quite a prankster as well. During his senior year, he led the Devils to an undefeated regular season, but in the 1997 Rose Bowl, ASU lost 20-17 to Ohio State. That year, in the second round of the NFL draft, the Cardinals scooped him up with the 42nd overall pick. He played his first six seasons with the Cardinals and the last four with the Denver Broncos. Plummer is considered by many as the most underrated quarterback in Bronco history. Danny White wasn’t heavily recruited as a football player at Mesa Westwood High School because he was considered a better baseball player. As the story goes, then ASU coach Frank Kush convinced baseball coach Bobby Winkles to recruit White with the provision he would punt for the football team. But White eventually ended up doing more than punting, taking over signal calling duties in his sophomore season. White went on to have a standout career, compiling a 33-4 record, winning three Fiesta Bowls and setting seven NCAA passing records. The Dallas Cowboys drafted him in the third round of the 1974 draft, but as a punter so he chose to sign with the World Football League’s Memphis Southmen. In 1976 after the WFL folded, he signed with the Cowboys. For three years he was the Dallas punter and backup to star quarterback Roger Staubach. After Staubach’s retirement, White became the starting quarterback and led Dallas to three NFC championships before retiring in 1986 partly due to a knee injury. During his career, he threw 1,761 completions on 2,950 attempts for 21,959 yards and 155 touchdowns. He also gained 842 yards and scored eight touchdowns rushing. The accomplishments of the once unheralded ASU-five is proof that predicting a future pro is an inexact science, at best. Which should signal Tontozona fans to take notice of every player — you can never tell which one is on the verge of becoming a big-time pro star.

Camp Tontozona’s economic impact a touchdown BY ALEXIS BECHMAN ROUNDUP STAFF REPORTER

It is as close to hosting a Super Bowl as Rim Country will likely ever come. With at least 8,000 people expected to stream through town over five days of practices, town officials say the impact of Arizona State University’s Camp Tontozona on the local economy is nothing less than a touchdown. Already, local hotel rooms are booking up after the town announced it was hosting a new pep rally Friday, Aug. 14. The idea is to capture more of the fanfare and drive revenue into local businesses with fans hopefully staying the weekend instead of just coming into town for the Saturday scrimmage, said Cameron Davis, tourism director. The longer fans stay in town the more time they have to visit local restaurants and shops. For Payson, tourism is a major driver of local sales tax and bed tax revenue. Davis said with the Sun Devils football practice not competing with the August Rodeo on the same weekend this year, locals can expect two full weekends of activity. “We are expecting very large crowds this year,” he said. Last year, 8,000 ASU fans flocked to Rim Country for the preseason football practices with 3,500 of those coming for the final scrimmage. Some 800 vehicles parked along State Route 260 outside the picturesque camp nestled in the woods east of Payson.

The crowds that flock to see the ASU Sun Devils at Camp Tontozona have a positive impact on the local economy.

At local restaurants, there were lines for tables. This year appears to be no different with buzz being strong around this year’s team. Davis hopes that means more Sun Devils fans will make the journey to cheer the team on. “I am calling hotels and they are saying they only have one room or two rooms left,” he said. Payson has 700 hotel rooms and with the average overnight guest spending

upward of $400 on a room, meals and gasoline, Camp T delivers a major boost to the economy. But Davis said local hotels and restaurants aren’t the only businesses that see gains. “The entire region sees the benefit,” from Payson to Christopher Creek, Tonto Village and Kohl’s Ranch. For several months now, Davis and Bobby Davis (no relation), the town’s economic development director, said sales

tax numbers have been steadily increasing hinting that the economy is rebuilding. “We are seeing signs of the economy turning around,” he said. “And when those two numbers, the bed tax and sales tax go up, that means more money to fix the streets and other things.” Ultimately, Bobby Davis hopes visitors, like those the Payson Parks, Recreation and Tourism Department brings in, realize how amazing Rim Country is and buy a home or start a business here.

ASU Sun Devils football coach Todd Graham enjoys a lighter moment at last year’s visit by the team to the Rim Country’s Camp Tontozona.

Devils enjoy sustained success under Todd Graham BY KEITH MORRIS ROUNDUP SPORTS EDITOR

It’s all in place. Four years ago, one of the best decisions in program history transformed Arizona State football. When Arizona State officials hired coach Todd Graham in December of 2011, visions of sustained success danced in their heads. Well, he’s delivered, with a 28-12 (.700) record in three seasons including back-toback 10-win campaigns. This year, Graham looks ready to add to that string. ASU comes to Camp Tontozona for this second week of practice in preparation for the Sept. 5 opener against Texas A&M, confident it’s one of the best teams in the country. Graham did that. He sold talented young men on what he wanted to build in Tempe then showed them how to reach their potential. Now, just a few years removed from a painful fouryear period in which the Sun Devils went 21-28 under Dennis Erickson, ASU ranks among the best Pac-12 teams. This year, Graham hopes to win his second South Division crown in three years en route to a Pac12 championship. The Pac-12 Media Poll has ASU No. 2 in the Pac-12 South behind USC. They remain a long shot to beat North Division juggernaut Oregon, ranked No. 2 nationally. The Associated Press Preseason Top 25 lists ASU at No. 12, with, South Division rivals UCLA No. 10, Arizona No. 19 and USC No. 20.

Talent,experience make Sun Devils contenders BY KEITH MORRIS

the immediate eligibility of UCLA senior transfer Devin Lucien (6-2, 195). He caught 58 passes for 752 yards and four TDs in three seasons with the Bruins, including 29 receptions for 225 yards and two touchdowns a year ago.

ROUNDUP SPORTS EDITOR

Arizona State just may have the ingredients for a championship football season this fall. The Sun Devils feature a defense returning nine starters, a 1,000-yard rusher changing roles, a quarterback ready to lead the way to glory after offering a hint of his ability a year ago, and a trio of starters returning on the offensive line. It may be the deepest and most explosive team in Todd Graham’s four seasons as coach. Here’s a glimpse at some of the players to watch this year.

RB – DEMARIO RICHARD

A talented group of young runners led by 5-foot-10, 220-pound sophomore Demario Richard helps make moving Foster outside possible. An excellent blend of strength and quickness helped Richard rank second on the team only to Foster with 487 rushing yards as a freshman, leading the Sun Devils with 5.7 yards per carry and earning All-Pac-12 Honorable Mention.

QB – MIKE BERCOVICI

The 6-foot-2, 210-pound redshirt senior with an accurate and powerful arm showed in three starts as a junior that he has the talent and poise to lead a championship team when he went 2-1 filling in for injured starter Taylor Kelly. After setting school records for completions and attempts in going 42-for-68 for 488 yards and three touchdowns in his first career game against UCLA, he followed it up with an even more memorable game. Bercovici became the first player in history to throw for five touchdowns against USC in rallying the Sun Devils to a thrilling 38-34 victory with a pair of TD passes in the final 3:02. He drove ASU 72 yards in 23 seconds for the winning score, hitting Jaelen Strong with a 46-yard pass on the final play to lift ASU to one of the most remarkable comebacks in school

The 6-foot, 195-pound Scottsdale Saguaro High graduate enters his final college season as a preseason candidate for the Maxwell Award, which goes to the College Player of the Year. Foster was named to the All-Pac-12 Second Team after leading the Sun Devils with 1,081 rushing yards and nine touchdowns and finishing second on the team in receiving

with 62 catches for 688 yards and three scores as a junior. He’s the only active Football Bowl Subdivision player with more than 2,000 career rushing yards and 1,500 career receiving yards.

The 6-foot-3, 295-pound senior is one of the junior college transfer success stories for the Sun Devils under Graham. He was voted to the All-Pac 12 Second Team last season and enters this season as a co-captain and has been named to the Rimington Trophy Watch List. “The guy that no one really talks much about that I think is one of the most powerful leaders on our team is Nick Kelly,” said Graham in his Pac-12 Media Day press conference. “He has developed into a guy that’s one of the top centers on the draft board in the nation. Just his leadership and the intangibles that he brings, the work ethic.” CONTINUED ON PAGE 10

The 6-foot-4, 300-pound redshirt senior made Pac-12 Honorable Mention after starting at left guard a year ago and helping Foster rush for 1,000 yards. One of the most sought after high school players in Arizona history at Chandler Hamilton, he accepted a scholarship from Auburn but transferred to ASU after an injury-plagued redshirt freshman season in 2012. He takes on an even bigger role as a leader in his final season. “Guys like Nick (Kelly) and Christian don’t say a whole lot, but they get a lot done when it comes to leadership,” Graham said.

A veteran on the offensive line, the 6-foot-3, 315-pound redshirt senior has started 27 consecutive games and returns to right guard with his aggressive and physical blocking that’s created holes helping Foster to a pair of 1,000yard rushing campaigns. The Phoenix Moon Valley High graduate made the AllPac-12 Honorable Mention list a year ago. FS – JORDAN SIMONE

Highlighting the veteran defense is a secondary featuring talented redshirt senior Jordan Simone (6-0, 195) at free safety. He ranked first on the team with 8.3 tackles per game as a junior and earned All-Pac-12 Honorable Mention and the Darren Woodson Outstanding Secondary Award.

They follow that with games at UCLA the next week, at Utah a couple of weeks later and a marquee matchup with the mighty Ducks on Thursday, Oct. 29. They close the home schedule against rival Arizona on Nov. 21. The Sun Devils hope there’s more on the line than state pride when they host the Wildcats. It’s always been about championships since Graham took over. So only a South Division crown that earns them a shot at the conference title will satisfy. Of course, the Pac-12 champ should make the national semifinals and be two wins from the ultimate championship. It’s a tall mountain to climb, but the Sun Devils have reached their base camp. Now, they hope to make a push for the summit.

The group also conducts an annual program to help residents dispose of dry vegetation on their properties to minimize the risk of a catastrophic wildfire. For details about the race, go online to fireontherim.com, registration information is also on the site.

MISSION IMPOSSIBLE: ROGUE NATION

Latest in MI franchise doesn’t disappoint We get a lift in our heartbeat just hearing the familiar bars of the “Mission Impossible” theme song as the new “Mission Impossible: Rogue Nation” begins. And because Simon Pegg has a prominent place in the opening scene, we get a couple of smiles as well. We start off with a roar, well a roar and a crazy stunt where hugely rich movie star Tom Cruise actually hangs from the closed door of an Airbus A400 at an actual 5,000 feet above the earth. In a franchise noted for remarkable physical stunts this surely ranks among the most dangerous. Cruise and Pegg also do their own high speed stunt driving in the film, which also falls outside of the usual moviemaking structure where expert (and more easily replaced) drivers typically do the dangerous stuff. But does this exciting fol de rol make a good movie? Well, pretty much. The writer/director Christopher McQuarrie let a couple of false notes into the play, but by the time we realize it, we are gone again,

Writer/Director McQuarrie swept up into some new extravwrote the fabulous “The Usual aganza of action. Suspects” and wrote the Cruise always surprises me Cruise films “Jack Reacher,” when he pulls off a solid action “Valkyrie” and “Edge of hero role in a totally believable Tomorrow,” which makes the way. Deep down I still think of false note in this film the more him as the teen heartthrob from glaring. Sadly, both boo-boos “Risky Business,” but he beats Andy McKinney revolve around Swedish actress and bludgeons his way through Reviewer Rebecca Ferguson. In one of the the fight scenes as well as anycoolest sequences in the movie, one working today. He is backed up by Ving Rhames, her character leads a chase sequence on who along with only Cruise himself, has motorcycles through the hills of Morocco made all five MI movies. Alec Baldwin as that had no believable reason for hapthe CIA chief has the role of duplicitous, pening (great sequence for sure and very self-absorbed government functionary exciting). And she makes a personal down pat. Jeremy Renner, another action overture to Cruise that had no buildup to hero actor, has a calmer role as the head make it work. Ferguson is a face fresh to of MI. Englishman Sean Harris plays us and she acts in a convincing way, the the head of The Syndicate, the super vil- fault rests with the writer. The stupendous $150 million budget lains’ outfit with an eerie menace. To see another great role for Harris, watch the spawned a hefty worldwide gross of $121 TV series “The Borgias” where he plays million, so the producers should be happy. one of the most interesting and terrifying The film carries a mild PG-13 rating, so we have no issues with language or sexuassassins on film in several episodes.

al themes, only violence. This solid three saw blade film has the best sort of highspeed visual fun for us to enjoy. OPENING ON AUGUST 17

“The Man from U.N.C.L.E.” Fans of the old TV show have been waiting much too long to see Napoleon Solo and Illya Kuryakin again. Henry Cavill has trained at playing a sophisticated, witty, but dangerous hero on several seasons on the TV show “White Collar.” He is joined by Hugh Grant and Armie Hammer. Guy Richie directs which ensures that there will be brilliant, imaginative action scenes. This will be a fun way to finish out the summer season. PG-13. “Underdog” In this PG-rated animated kiddie flick a boy becomes involved with sports when his foosball players come to life. This family friendly film will suit those looking for such.

ARIES (March 21 to April 19) A relaxed mood early in the week could give way to high-temperature disputes. The Aries Lamb should resist being pulled into heated quarrels that could really singe your wool. TAURUS (April 20 to May 20) Satisfy that practical obligation first, then you can feel free to indulge in your creative endeavors. Also, check for hidden or overlooked areas where repairs might be long overdue. GEMINI (May 21 to June 20) Home is still the Twins’ major focus this week. But outside matters begin to take on added importance, especially those involving possible career moves. Stay alert for signs of change. CANCER (June 21 to July 22) A travel plan might need to undergo some considerable adjustment because of unexpected changes. Keep an open mind and let the facts guide you on how you want to handle this. LEO (July 23 to August 22) Playing cat and mouse with a matter you don’t really want to tackle wastes time, energy and, most important, an opportunity. Ask someone with experience to help you get started. VIRGO (August 23 to September 22) A shift in policy might not please you, but before you put up a “no go” wall of resistance, examine the circumstances. You might be quite pleasantly surprised by what you find. LIBRA (September 23 to October 22) Yesterday’s critiques about your methods might have already evolved into today’s praise for your achievements. Good for you. Now go on and continue to build on your credibility. SCORPIO (October 23 to November 21) An occasional temperamental flare-up might occur as you continue to help get things back to normal. Stay with it. You should soon get some idea of where to take things next. SAGITTARIUS (November 22 to December 21) A negative reaction to what you believe was a well-deserved request might mean that you need to reconsider your position and make changes accordingly. CAPRICORN (December 22 to January 19) There’s always room for someone new at the Sea Goat’s table. And the someone new this week could bring a message you’ve been waiting a long time to hear. AQUARIUS (January 20 to February 18) A pile-on of personal matters this week might seem too overwhelming to deal with. But handling them on a one-by-one basis could have you out from under it by the weekend. PISCES (February 19 to March 20) A friend might need your good advice regarding a matter. Be supportive. But unless you can be absolutely sure you have all the facts, be careful about any suggestions you might be asked to offer. BORN THIS WEEK: Few things make you happier than bringing people together and helping to forge new friendships.
