Syracuse Orange

It may be National Signing Day, but that has not prevented staff news from being reported. According to FootballScoop, Syracuse is set to hire Nate McNeal as its new General Manager, a position that did not exist under prior regimes. McNeal was the Director of Player Personnel at Illinois the last two seasons. 

This new position was created by Fran Brown and part of changes he has implemented into the program as Syracuse looks to show it is serious about turning its football program into a winner once again. 

Here is more on McNeal from the FootballScoop report: 

Brown and McNeal previously worked together at Temple in 2019, when Brown was the Owls' co-defensive coordinator and McNeal was finishing up multiple seasons as that program's director of player personnel.

A former letterwinner at Northern Illinois, McNeal has worked at his alma mater, delivered two separate stints at Illinois and now been positioned for this new oversight role at Syracuse.

McNeal's diverse work background in college football includes multiple roles as a personnel director, as well as high school relations and in video operations. He was viewed as a key cog for Bielema and Illinois as that program reestablished its recruiting bona fides within the state.

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.
