Arizona State's football recruiting is taking a bold stance and laying down a hard line when it comes to high school commitments. Is Kenny Dillingham's "all in" policy reshaping Sun Devil culture or costing them top talent? Richie Bradshaw analyzes ASU's strict commitment rules in light of a recent recruiting visit to Nebraska from four-star wide receiver Nalin Scott and questions whether he will de-commit from the Sun Devils based on Dilly's policies.

The discussion covers previous high-profile losses, such as four-star recruits Rylon Dillard Allen and Adrian Wilson, as well as balancing high school recruiting with transfer portal wins and in-state recruiting challenges. Bradshaw explores how this policy affects team identity and attracts fully committed players. Tune in for an in-depth look at how ASU's unique approach could redefine college football recruiting strategies.
