Syracuse Orange

Class of 2024 West Orange (NJ) High defensive back Chaas McCoy was one of several prospects from the Garden State on the Syracuse campus over the weekend. He enjoyed his visit. 

"Loved everything about it," McCoy said. "Learning from the best. Coach Fisher taught me a lot about what it's like to be a part of the Cuse family." 

One of the highlights was being able to attend practice and observe how the coaches coach as well as the competitive culture within the program. 

"Watched the practice, loved the competitiveness and watching the guys craft and get after it during the two minute drill," McCoy said. "The staff's energy is just as high as the players'. Can definitely see myself there in a year and a half." 

During the visit, McCoy spent a lot of time with cornerbacks backs coach Travis Fisher. 

"Everything ends with a finish," McCoy said. "Coach Fisher told me finish in everything you do and surely it will translate to the game at our position. Great coach with a strong mindset. Keeps it real with you and breaks down details. 

"His message to me was to be different by mainly listen always in life. Every question asked he said it was no wrong answer, which stood out to me." 

The campus and facilities also stood out. 

"Loved the little city (campus) and the facilities were amazing," McCoy said. "The halls showing the sport's success Syracuse has and how they produce great athletes and great athletes only (stood out)." 

McCoy holds the Orange in high regard after the visit. 

"Definitely one of my favorite visits so far," McCoy said. "Definitely boosted Cuse's interest in me after yesterday and looking forward to being back. They're supposed to come by to see me this spring."

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.
