Arizona State netted Kansas transfer safety Lyrik Rawls on Thursday, its most notable defensive addition in the first week of the open portal.
Rawls was the second Big 12 starter the Sun Devils have taken from a Big 12 foe after Colorado’s Omarion Miller, the No. 2-ranked wideout in the portal, committed on Monday.
The 6-foot-1, 205-pound safety started all 12 games for the Jayhawks this season, totaling 73 tackles (second on team), seven passes defensed, one interception and one tackle for loss.
Prior to his year with Kansas, he spent four years at Oklahoma State (2021-24), where he played in 29 games and had two interceptions and 67 tackles.
