The Valley of the Sun Chapter is offering prints of a limited edition
poster done by nationally-known sports artist Steve Viota that features
Arizona State University legends Dan Devine, Frank Kush and Danny
White, with proceeds going to the Chapter's scholarship fund. Autographed
copies of the 18"x30" full-color print by the three Hall of Famers

Devine had a 27-3-1 record at ASU before going on

was the Sun Devils' coach for 22 years when his teams won 76% of
their games. White led Kush-coached teams in 1971-73 to a 32-4 record
and three Fiesta Bowl wins before going on to play for the Dallas
Cowboys. He now is general manager and head coach of the Arizona
Rattlers in the Arena Football League.
