On the first day of fall practice, senior safety Jordan Simone was featured in "The Family: Part II," a Sun Devil Athletics production.
The video was a continuation of an earlier segment in which he opened up about his journey to Tempe.
After securing a scholarship and transferring to ASU from Washington State, the Sammamish, Washington native earned All-Pac-12 Conference honorable mention honors and emerged as one of the emotional leaders of the 2015 Sun Devil football team.
Jordan's father, Ronnie, played football at ASU for two seasons from 1984 to 1985, and his brother Gino played at Washington State from 2009 to 2012.
Sun Devil Athletics has also done two-part features with senior quarterback Mike Bercovici and senior wide receiver D.J. Foster.
The season begins Sept. 5 in Houston against Texas A&M.
Countdown to kickoff: 32 days.
