Syracuse Orange

Syracuse freshman running back Ike Daniels announced on Tuesday that he will enter the transfer portal. He enters after spending one season at Syracuse, in which he redshirted, and will have four years of eligibility remaining. Daniels played in four games this past season, rushing for 103 yards on 18 carries. 

"First I give thanks and praise to God for giving me the opportunity to play the game I love," Daniels wrote in a social media post. "Thank you to the coaches who believed in me and the relationships built here at Syracuse. I thank everyone who believes and supported me through my journey. 

"With that said, I will be entering my name in the transfer portal with 4 years of eligibility." 

Daniels signed with Syracuse as part of its 2023 recruiting class out of Mountain View High School in Virginia. He was rated a three star prospect by all four major recruiting services. Daniels chose the Orange over offers from Arizona State, Boston College, Michigan State, Penn State, Pittsburgh, South Carolina, Tennessee, Virginia, Virginia Tech, Wake Forest and West Virginia, among others. 

While Daniels only appeared in four games to preserve his redshirt, he was named ACC Rookie of the Week for his performance in the season opener against Colgate. He rushed for 63 yards in the win and added 15 receiving yards as well.

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.
