Arizona State Commit Discusses Recruiting Process, More

The last year has been a whirlwind for the Arizona State Sun Devils football progrm.

Year two of the Kenny Dillingham era was entered with subdued expectations after a three win 2023 season - the team obviously shot past projections to seucre 11 victories.

The tangible on-field success, track record of player development amongst the coaching staff, and other selling points such as weather could all be major drawing points for future recruits.

Enter Landen Miree - a coveted tight end recruit in the 2026 class out of Cincinnati. Miree committed to play for Arizona State in mid-July after a chance recruiting visit.

Jordan Hamm of Sports360AZ was joined by Miree in recent days to discuss the latter's commitment to play for the Sun Devils - including the story behind the program getting a visit from him, his thoughts on the campus, and why tight ends coach Jason Mohns was a driving force behind that choice.

On how the visit came to be:

"So, I actually was on my way to Oregon for a visit, and we had a four hour layover... I wanna go to Arizona State, check em' out."

On the campus:

"It was a beautiful campus... I never saw a campus as great as ASU's and like I said it was a real quick visit, after watching my film they offered me and then went on my way."

On his connection with Mohns:

"The first visit I only got to talk to coach Mohns and Trent Burch... coach Mohns had to rush over there."
