    I'm really curious as to how good at basketball he is. Couldn't find any video but he told all the TBS reporters he wants to play both up here.

    Wasn't ET the number 2 or 3 ranked point guard, and he couldn't play both. ASJ was a freak, and he could barely do it. There is a lot of talent on that team, hopefully he can be an all pac 12 corner and replace King, and hopefully take 10-15 snaps a game on offense

    Best recruit in the class. I love Long because of his attitude and tuffness, but Murphy is the best athlete in the class and I'm not sure it is even close.

    I hate to say it, but I hope he plays offense.

    Not sure how you define "athlete" (size, quickness, speed, strength, agility, power, etc.), but I think Brandon Wellington is in the discussion. Murphy is probably the best ATH, but Wellington is up there.
    This wasn't a perfect class, but Wellington is another guy who is easy to be excited about. There are quite a few guys like that. I just wish we signed another 1-2 OL, a DT, and an actually good, decent sized WR.

    Striking out with elitese and a decent wr were the only things that hampered this class. it sucks that we took fuller, chin and Harris but I don't know where else you replace anyone. I am probably forgetting someone that sucks.

    He wasnt' anywhere near that high as a point guard, I think he was at the lower end of the top 100. Still, you're poont is a good one, I can't see him playing both.

    I wouldn't want him playing it either, but apparently it matters to him a lot. Enough to make it a focal point of ASU's last second desperation pitch to flip him. Which is why I'm wondering how good he actually is for that to be so high priority for him.
