Per SU Athletics, the ACC Network will shoot and produce a three-part series on Syracuse football and its first-year head coach, Fran Brown, that will debut on Monday, Aug. 12. Love it.
BOOM. Jaylan Hornsby, a 2024 4-star WR who was verbally committed to Texas A&M and took an official visit to Syracuse football this weekend, has verbally pledged to SU. The 6-foot-3, 204-pound Hornsby is a standout senior at Winslow Township High School in Atco, N.J. Let's G🍊!!!

Interesting. Syracuse wins 20 regular-season games for the first time in a decade, Chance didn't play at all, Naheem got injured after 14 games, Benny was dismissed, and you want to fire Autry? Got it.
Since it's portal season, here's a friendly request that fans don't trash Syracuse basketball players who hit the portal. These guys are young people; some of them teen-agers. How about we wish them well and move on? Some of the comments I see are immature and just plain mean.
I have a request. I know that we're all so jazzed about Fran Brown, the new staff and what they're doing on the recruiting trail. But can we all please provide some beautiful support to the current team - coaches, players, etc. - as they eye a bowl game win on Thursday? Love you.

Hi. Syracuse football is 6-0 and ranked No. 14 in the country. How are we feeling, Orange Nation? Will the 'Cuse shock No. 5 Clemson on the road this Saturday?
Can I just say, for Syracuse basketball to come back and grab a road win over a physical Pittsburgh team after the loss at North Carolina, it's impressive and encouraging and lovely!

You gotta love the NET rankings. Today, N.C. State is one spot ahead of Syracuse basketball. 'Cuse has a better overall record, a better non-conference record, and a better ACC record. They each have four true road wins. Syracuse has two quad-one wins. N.C. has one. Makes sense.

We're all disappointed. I get it. But I love how some "fans" don't say a thing when SU goes 6-0, but the minute the Orange loses a game (or two), it's fire Babers, this team sucks, blah, blah, blah. The negativity is exhausting.

Understandably, lots of angry fans out there after last night's loss by Syracuse basketball. I get it. Totally fine to be frustrated. But the outright personal attacks and trashing of players - some of these players are teenagers - are really unfortunate.
Syracuse football redshirt senior Caleb Okechukwu, a 6-foot-4, 276-pound defensive lineman from Washington, D.C., says on X that he's declaring for the 2024 NFL Draft. Can't wait to see you play on Sundays. Orange Nation loves you,

Don’t get me wrong. I hate that Syracuse lost on Wednesday. But I tip my hat to N.C. State. Five wins in five days. Beat Duke, then Virginia then North Carolina. Gotta respect that.

Good morning. Judah Mintz is coming back. The Syracuse roster is set. The backcourt is loaded. The wings are talented. Replacing Jesse is tough, but Naheem has lots of potential. On paper, this is a preseason top-25 team (homer) that will make a run at the Big Dance. Let's go! 🧡

Syracuse (18-10, 9-8) has a NET of 84. 2 quad-one wins. If Oregon moves to 50 and N.C. State to 75, SU could have 4 in quad one. Home vs. VT, at UL, at Clemson. SU must win those first 2. Win at Clemson and do damage in ACCT, and I think this is an NCAA tourney team. Thoughts?

I'm just gonna go ahead and say this right now, and if you don't like it, all good. If a recruit tweets about a 'Cuse offer, and calls it the University of Syracuse, and you tweet directly back at the recruit with a "correction," that's really freaking lame, and really obnoxious.
