Speak of the Devils Podcast Sitdown Series: ASU Offensive lineman Ben Coleman
Success starts in the trenches, and the Sun Devils’ turnaround along the offensive line was a major factor in their success in 2024. With four starters back for 2025, the line looks to once again be a team strength. But not everyone will be back in their old spots, as Ben Coleman will be sliding over from left guard to center to replace All-Big 12 selection Leif Fautanu. After missing his first year in Tempe due to injury, Ben returned to the lineup last year and put together a standout season. No matter where he lines up this fall, Ben will be a key player on the field and an important leader off of it. On this episode, Ben and I discuss the keys to ASU’s success, why he bypassed the NFL Draft for another year in Tempe, his evolving leadership role, activating the Valley, young OLmen to watch, the best breakfast spots in Tempe, and more.
