Tommy Lloyd, Randy Bennett take friendly rivalry to the Big 12
New Arizona State men's basketball coach Randy Bennett has crossed paths more than a few times with Arizona counterpart Tommy Lloyd. Sure, Bennett is in his first season heading the Sun Devils program. But their association goes back to their previous schools. Both were longtime coaches in the West Coast Conference, with Bennett heading Saint Mary's from 2001 until taking the ASU job in March. Meanwhile, Lloyd was a longtime assistant at Gonzaga under Hall of Fame coach Mark Few from 2001-21, before he left for his current job in Tucson. For decades, it has been Gonzaga and Saint Mary's fighting for supremacy in that conference. They played twice in the regular season, and usually again in the postseason tournament. "We go way back," Bennett said, of his association with Lloyd. "We always had great games, and I looked forward to playing them. We brought out the best in each other, made each other better. The rivalry was a good one." When the teams square off in Big 12 play later this season, it will be the first with both as head coaches of their respective schools. The Sun Devils are looking to bounce back from a 17-16 showing last

The Randy Bennett era of Sun Devils men's hoops begins
After 11 middling-to-disappointing years under Bobby Hurley , the Arizona State men's basketball team is hoping for a fresh start under new head coach Randy Bennett. Why it matters: The Sun Devils haven't made the NCAA Tournament since 2023 — and never made it past the first round under Hurley — but Bennett brings a long history of success from his quarter-century stint at St. Mary's. Catch up quick: ASU parted ways with Hurley after last season, in which the Sun Devils went just 17-16. It hired Bennett, a 64-year-old Mesa native, to replace him. Bennett's introduction notably was delayed five weeks due to an undisclosed health issue. He brings a winning pedigree: He holds a .721 winning percentage and led St. Mary's to the NCAA Tournament 12 times in 25 seasons, advancing past the first round five times. State of play: Bennett has completely reshaped the ASU roster through transfers. Only two players return from last year's team, one of whom missed the entire season with an injury. The most notable additions are senior forward Paulius Murauskas, who followed Bennett from St. Mary's, and senior Gonzaga transfer Emmanuel Innocenti. Altogether, ASU's transfer class was ranked first in the Big
