Arizona State football landed a defensive threat in edge rusher J’Mond Tapp, who spent the past two seasons at Texas.
The defensive end announced his commitment to the Sun Devils on Instagram on Sunday after reportedly visiting ASU and Louisville last week.
The 6-foot-3, 255-pounder entered the transfer portal earlier this month after he played seven games for the Longhorns last season. He had eight tackles, including 1.5 for a loss.
He played in nine games overall with Texas and has three years of eligibility remaining.
