Reinaldo Perez Talks Arizona State Relationship

  • "ASU, like many of the other schools that have offered me, still sits very strongly in my recruiting. I’m very open-minded with my options, but I love what ASU has to offer not only as a football program, but as a family and school," the Arizona State Sun Devils target stated when speaking to Arizona State Sun Devils On SI about his Arizona State Sun Devils recruitment.

The Arizona State Sun Devils have many different coaches who are among the best in the world of recruiting. Perez went into detail about which coach or coaches he speaks with the most.

  • "The coach I’ve had the most contact with there would have to be Coach Reynolds. Since he’s offered me, we’ve been in constant contact, and he pops in a lot to see how I’m doing."

  • "I wouldn’t say I have a list that stands out to me because a lot of the schools that have offered me have shown a lot of love and interest. Therefore, with what they provide on all aspects, I reciprocate that back because I think all of them have a lot to offer."

Do the Arizona State Sun Devils have anything that they need to change?

  • "I don’t necessarily think they need to change anything about themselves because they’re doing everything right for their process and mine. I enjoy hearing from them, and I hope I’m able to come out soon!"
