Priscilla Williams Enters Transfer Portal

One of the most highly touted recruits in recent memory for Syracuse women's basketball is leaving the program. Sophomore guard Priscilla Williams announced on Instagram Monday that she is entering the transfer portal. She is the fourth Orange player to enter the portal thus far, joining Chrislyn Carr, Christianna Carr and Julianna Walker.

The former McDonald's All-American did not play at all last season due to an undisclosed injury. 

"First off, I wanna thank God for giving me the opportunity to play at Syracuse University," Williams said via Instagram. "I also wanna thank my family for always having my back. With coaching changes, getting hurt and having to sit out my sophomore year, this whole process has taught me valuable lessons that I will take with me in life. I wanna thank everyone who I got the chance to be teammates with! Thank you for the good times. I will cherish those memories forever. I have grown so much, learned valuable lessons, and will always remember the impact Syracuse had on me. With that being said, I have decided to enter the transfer portal to find a new place to call home. Forever thankful to be able to play this game of basketball-at this level. Thank you to everyone who has supported me thus far, and I know will support me along the way." 

Williams averaged 8.7 points and 3.2 assists as a true freshman, shooting 37% from beyond the arc. She has three years of eligibility remaining. 

The 6-2 guard was part of a 2020 recruiting class for Syracuse that included two top 10 players with her and Kamilla Cardoso. Both are now gone as the Orange transitions into the Felisha Legette-Jack era.

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.
