Syracuse Freshman DE Enters Transfer Portal

Jason Munoz, a redshirt freshman defensive end at Syracuse, has entered the transfer portal, according to a report from 247Sports. Munoz is listed at 6-3, 243 pounds, redshirted during the 2019 season and has not accumulated any stats during the 2020 campaign. Munoz will have four years or eligibility remaining if he does not have to sit out.

Munoz picked Syracuse over Boston College, Illinois, Kentucky, Louisville, Maryland, Miami, Missouri and Pittsburgh out of high school. He was originally committed to Miami, but after former head coach Mark Richt left the program, Munoz started looking for other options behind the scenes. After a visit to Syracuse, he flipped his commitment and signed with the Orange.

Munoz starred at St. Thomas Aquinas high school and received recruiting interest from multiple power five conferences. Despite only being on the Syracuse campus for two seasons, he has not been able to crack the rotation along the defensive line. He was originally recruited as someone who could develop into a defensive tackle, but the change in defensive systems may have not been a good fit. 

The Orange have five defensive linemen committed in their 2021 class, and may look to the transfer portal to bring in some more experience that fits the 3-3-5. Syracuse is currently 1-9 on the 2020 season, and has their season finale on Saturday at No. 2 Notre Dame.

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.
