Aaron Williams Shares Thoughts on Arizona State’s Recruiting Strategy

In this story:
The Arizona State Sun Devils have already started to look at the players in the 2027 recruiting class, as they have already fallen short of what they want in the 2026 recruiting class, with only a total of 17 commitments at this time.
This is something that they have been able to do as recently as they have been targeting multiple different positions at the extent of wanting to land commitments early on, similar to how they were able to do on the 2026 recruiting class, but they want to keep their foot on the gas this time.
One player that they have already started targeting in the 2027 recruiting class is Aaron Williams, who is one of the best players in the class, in my opinion. Williams' uncle is Derrick Johnson, who is one of the better Kansas City Chiefs of all time. Williams caught up with Arizona State Sun Devils On SI to detail the latest in his recruitment.
