Incoming basketball point guard transfer Brandon Dunson spoke with ASUDevils.com Wednesday morning about the transition back to Division I basketball.

Brandon Dunson: "It's real good. Everyone is pretty athletic and skilled. It makes me excited because you can see the potential of the team."

Brandon Dunson: "It's pretty much like I expected but I didn't know we were going to be as athletic as we are. We should be a pretty good team once the season comes along.

Brandon Dunson: "I think all of the freshmen have the ability to contribute. Once you get into practice it becomes a different thing but they've all showed they have the ability to play and contribute. I think it comes down to more mentality than ability though."

Brandon Dunson: "To keep improving on all facets of my game and they want me to be a leader out there. They want me to have leadership because I'll be a senior next year and Ty and Jamelle will be gone so they really want my leadership."

Brandon Dunson: "It's not but not as bad as I expected it would be. You get used to it quick."

Brandon Dunson: "I always thought we were going to be good but it just reassured me about that and everybody works hard. That's the good thing about it."

Brandon Dunson: "I have an online course now, it's good. I had a sports management class last session."

Brandon Dunson: "Yeah they'll come out a couple times. When I come out here for good in the fall semester my brother is going to come out with me and then my parents will come at the end of August but they're going to try to make a few games. It will be a lot of travel for them."

Brandon Dunson: "We were just in the gym the day before I came out here and we were just in the gym messing around. My brother has always wanted to get video of my dad dunking so he brought a camera that day. We'll play open gym at home with college guys and my dad will play and do well and sometimes he'll kill us actually. We put something together for my dad and a couple of his friends and I guess it got out. ESPN got ahold of it and contacted us and wanted to put it up."

Brandon Dunson: "My dad's 51, he turned 51 in April. He's a recreational director at a local center for basketball so he stays around the kids and he's real active every day. That's how he stays in shape, he just runs with the kids. He played at Parkland Junior College then he played summer league with the Washington Bullets and Sacramento Kings but other than that not really."

Brandon Dunson: "Actually the first time was probably only about three years ago. It felt great to finally get it. I remember the game, it was actually going into my senior year of high school. It was a close game to, I drained a 3-pointer over him to win."
