Signing Period

All 5 commitments have officially signed their letter of intent to SU.

Tyler Roberson Commits To Syracuse

Syracuse lands their 5th commit in 6'8 combo forward Tyler Roberson. Roberson displays similar skills as current Orange CJ Fair. He's a good shooter from mid-range that can slash to the basket, rebounds well and plays with a good motor. This will wrap up SU's class for the fall signing period but look for them to add another player or two during the spring period next year.

Noah Vonleh Commits To Indiana

SU and several other schools were hoping to get visits from Vonleh. Unfortunately for them while on his first official to Indiana, Vonleh decided to end things quickly and give the Hoosiers his commitment.

Recruiting Updates

2013
Tyler Roberson PF-Closing in on a decision soon and the word is that it could go either way between SU and Villanova.

Noah Vonleh PF-According to a source, Vonleh still has interest in SU and is trying to reschedule his visit. Keep an eye on the Roberson situation because if he commits, then it will most likely knock Vonleh out of the equation.

Rysheed Jordan CG-With the commitment of SG Ron Patterson, most would think Jordan isn't an option for SU anymore. While I still think that he'll most likely stay home and play for Temple. It hasn't stop the SU staff from recruiting him and if Michael Carter-Williams enters the draft, then another spot opens up for another guard.

Dakari Johnson C-Recently reclassified but the main schools stay the same from the last update. No decision will be made until the spring.

Jermaine Lawrence PF-Listed a final four of SU, St. John's, UNLV, and Cincy. Will still decide in the spring.

2014
Isaiah Whitehead SG-Chopped his list with SU, St. John's, Kentucky, Maryland, and Arizona being some of the notables. SU has put themselves in a good position with Whitehead, but look for him to go through the process and play the field before making a decision.

Stanley Johnson SF-Listed schools such as SU, Kentucky, Arizona, UCLA, USC, Washington, and Louisville as the main schools recruiting him. Johnson was rumored to be an Arizona lean over the summer.

Chris McCullough Commits To Syracuse and Dakari Johnson Reclassifies To 2013

Busy day on the recruiting front for SU basketball recruiting. Just a few days removed from teammate Ron Patterson committing to SU. Chris McCullough decides to end his recruitment early and commits to the Orange. There are rumors of McCullough possibly reclassifying to the 2013 class, but for now he remains in 2014.

Speaking of reclassifying, big man Dakari Johnson has decided to enter the 2013 class. Joining other SU targets such as Noah Vonleh and Andrew Wiggins, both who have recently made the switch in classes as well.

Ron Patterson Commits To Syracuse

While currently on his official visit to SU, Ron Patterson the former Indiana commit decided to make an commitment to the Orange. Patterson is a 6'3 athletic and physical guard, that can shoot, defend, and has an amazing 6'11 wingspan, which will cause opponents major problems up top in the zone. Not the best off the dribble but he's using his prep year to work on it and hopefully he will improve in that department when he hits college.
