Arizona State Lands Coveted 3-Star Tight End Landen Miree, Fending Off SEC Powerhouses
Tempe, AZ – The Arizona State Sun Devils have secured a significant recruiting victory, landing a commitment from highly sought-after 3-star tight end prospect Landen Miree. Miree’s decision to pledge his allegiance to the Sun Devils comes despite receiving offers from SEC powerhouses such as the Tennessee Volunteers and the Alabama Crimson Tide, making this a statement win for Coach Kenny Dillingham and his staff.
Miree, a versatile and athletic tight end, is considered one of the top prospects at his position in the 2026 recruiting class. His ability to both block effectively and contribute as a receiver made him a priority target for numerous programs across the country. While the allure of playing in the SEC is often a significant draw for recruits, Miree ultimately chose to stay in the Pac-12 and join the Sun Devils.
“We are incredibly excited to welcome Landen Miree to the Arizona State family,” said Coach Dillingham. “He is a tremendous talent with a bright future, and we believe he will be a valuable addition to our program. Landen’s decision to choose Arizona State over other top schools is a testament to the vision we have for this program and the relationships we are building with these young men.”
The Sun Devils’ coaching staff, particularly tight ends coach Jason Mohns, played a crucial role in securing Miree’s commitment. Mohns’ ability to connect with Miree and articulate a clear vision for his role in the offense resonated with the talented tight end.
Miree’s commitment addresses a position of need for Arizona State, as the Sun Devils are looking to bolster their tight end depth and add more playmakers to their offensive arsenal. His size, athleticism, and receiving skills make him an ideal fit for the Sun Devils’ offensive scheme.
The victory in the recruiting battle for Miree is a significant boost for Arizona State’s recruiting efforts, signaling that the program is capable of competing with the nation’s elite for top talent. It also demonstrates the growing momentum and positive trajectory of the Sun Devils under Coach Dillingham’s leadership.
With Landen Miree now officially committed, Arizona State fans have reason to be optimistic about the future of the program. His addition to the roster is a clear indication that the Sun Devils are committed to building a championship-caliber team, and they are willing to go head-to-head with the best programs in the country to achieve that goal.
