Syracuse Orange

Class of 2024 Washington (DC) Gonzaga edge David McMorris has decommitted from Syracuse football. The 6-2, 255 pounder announced the decision on social media. The decommitment comes in the wake of a coaching change with the Orange, who moved on from Dino Babers in the late stages of the 2023 season before hiring Fran Brown as his replacement. 

McMorris committed to Syracuse back in June following an official visit. He chose the Orange over offers from Boston College, Pittsburgh, Virginia Tech, Wake Forest, West Virginia and several others.

According to Max Preps, McMorris had 42 tackles, 7.0 tackles for loss, 4.0 sacks, one forced fumble and one fumble recovery in nine games during his junior season. McMorris is rated a three star prospect by 247Sports, ESPN, On3 and Rivals. He is ranked as a top 100 player at his position and top five best player in Washington (D.C.). 

The early National Signing Day is on December 20th. Recruits do not have to sign early, however, and can elect to take official visits in January while signing on the traditional signing day which is on February 7, 2024. Syracuse finished the 2023 season 6-6 to reach bowl eligibility for the second straight season. It is the first time the Orange will be in back to back bowl games since the 2012 and 2013 seasons.

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.
