Building a program is about culture, not just grabbing mercenaries. We've seen teams load up on transfers and still collapse by November. Our staff is developing players who actually want to be Sun Devils, not just rent-a-players for a season. That foundation wins in the long run, especially in the Big 12 grind. Sure, the portl is a tool, but acting like it's the only way shows a shallow understanding of team building. We're building something sustainable here, not a quick-fix house of cards.
