How does Nick Saban retiring and the opening at Alabama impact ASU?

Kenny Dillingham and ASU are in a prime position to take advantage of Nick Saban retiring, leaving a coaching opportunity at Alabama. Saban’s retirement allows Alabama players to enter the transfer portal for the next 30 days. Any coach who opts to leave for the job with the Crimson Tide would ultimately open the portal for their roster as well. Where does Arizona State fit into this equation? If Florida State coach Mike Norvell is the guy for Alabama, then Dillingham has an opening to snag some of his former players at FSU.
