Syracuse basketball has not taken the court in nearly 300 days due to the coronavirus pandemic that cut the 2019-20 season short and delayed the start of the 2020-21 campaign. Syracuse opens the season against Bryant in the Dome, but there will not be any fans in attendance. Syracuse returns four of five starters from last year's squad. Gone is All-ACC performer Elijah Hughes, who is headed to the Utah Jazz after being selected in the NBA Draft. In his place is Illinois transfer Alan Griffin. 

Bryant is also losing their leading scorer from a year ago, but has multiple contributors returning along with several transfers expected to play a role. The Bulldogs were picked to finish third in the NEC, and have more length than one would expect. They should provide a test for the Orange. 

Both teams have been impacted by COVID-19 already. Jim Boeheim and another member of the program tested positive, causing all team activities to pause until Thursday morning. Bryant had their season opener, originally scheduled for Wednesday against Stony Brook, cancelled due to a referee testing positive.

Title: Publisher All Syracuse Education: Roberts Wesleyan College Location: Syracuse, New York Expertise: Syracuse basketball, football and recruiting.  EXPERIENCE Mike McAllister has been covering Syracuse basketball, football and recruiting for more than a decade. Mike's career started with his own free blog as a way to vent following sporting events. Shortly thereafter, a network of basketball sites called Coast 2 Coast Hoops asked him to run their Syracuse site. That site was called Nation of Orange, and Mike quickly established it as a go-to for Syracuse fans.  After running Nation of Orange for several months, a position with the Syracuse site on the Scout network became available. After one year as the recruiting expert with Cuse Nation, he was named the publisher. Mike oversaw the transition from Scout to 247Sports, and ran the site on that network for years.  Presented with the opportunity to join one of the biggest names in the sports journalism industry, Sports Illustrated, Mike jumped at the chance. All Syracuse was started from scratch by Mike and the Fan Nation team. It has now become a staple for Orange fans of various sports.  Mike has broken news on recruiting, Syracuse basketball and football team information and has established himself as the top recruiting inside in the market. He has appeared on local radio shows, television broadcasts, national radio shows and much more. Mr. McAllister has a Bachelor of Science Degree in Accounting and Information Management from Roberts Wesleyan College.
