The Arizona State Sun Devils have been able to land multiple commits in the 2026 recruiting class thus far, but things have been a bit underwhelming when it comes to the recruiting scene.

They have some work to do in that class, as they only have a total of 17 commits in the class at this time, which isn't good at all considering they are fresh off their conference championship win last season, as well as their playoff performance.

They have started to show some focus in the 2027 class with a lot of recruits, but they have still fallen short in the sense of landing someone extremely early on. They have been looking to land one of the better players in the state of Texas at the wide receiver position, but the lack of effort has seemed to stand out because of the effort that he is receiving from other teams.

That prospect is Antayvious Ellis, who recently caught up with Arizona State Sun Devils On SI to detail how the recruiting process is going.
