About this listen

In this episode of Bleav in ASU, Assistant Offensive Line Coach Ty Barrett joins the show for an exclusive conversation about his role in shaping the Sun Devils' identity up front. We open the episode with Coach Barrett’s journey to Tempe, his transition from player to coach, and what drew him to Kenny Dillingham’s staff.

From there, we dive into his approach to offensive line development—from technique and toughness to leadership and accountability. Coach Barrett breaks down the key attributes he looks for in high school recruits and how ASU is positioning itself to compete in the recruiting game not only in Arizona, but nationally.

We also get personal insight into the games he’s got circled on this year’s schedule, including rivalries and matchups that carry extra weight. Coach Barrett shares what it means to build trust in the locker room, how the staff is establishing a culture of physicality, and how the offensive line is preparing to protect a young core of skill players.

Finally, we talk about the expectations for the 2025 season, the growth he’s seeing in the room, and why he believes this offensive line unit can set the tone for what ASU football is becoming.
