Arizona State football wide receiver Jordyn Tyson's Big 12 ranking slammed: 'Joke'
Is Arizona State football's Jordan Tyson being disrespected in one site's grades for the highest returning wide receivers in the Big 12? Some people criticized Pro Football Focus College for having the star ASU football receiver come in at No. 5 on a recent list, especially considering three of the four "returning" wide receivers ranked ahead of Tyson on the list didn't even play in the Big 12 last season, transferring to schools in the conference after playing in the FCS in 2024.

Some people strongly disagree with a recent ranking. 'Returning' Big 12 wide receiver grades slammed Athlon Sports' Tony Thomas was among those who criticized the rankings and Tyson's place in them. Advertisement He wrote: "Look at the Big 12 receiving stats from a season ago. You will note that Arizona State's Jordyn Tyson (grade of 80.4) finished third in the league with 75 catches for 1,100 yards and 10 TDs, behind only Tetairoa McMillan and Travis Hunter. McMillan and Hunter have moved on to the NFL. As a result, Tyson is the best returning receiver in the conference. Not to mention, he is a dynamic perimeter weapon for a team that returns almost their entire squad, their coaching staff and won the conference crown last season. "The national media continues to pile on their disrespect of the Sun Devils. They are making that chip on ASU's shoulder a little bigger as we get closer to Week 1 of the 2025 season."
