Syracuse Orange

Syracuse basketball recruiting target Donnie Freeman will announce his collegiate destination on Thursday, May 11th at 3:30 p.m. eastern at St. John's College High School. Freeman has taken official visits to Alabama, Iowa, Syracuse and Texas. He will decide among those schools and Georgia Tech. He is one of the top forwards in the 2024 class. 

"The visit was pretty straightforward," Freeman said after his Syracuse visit. "They got straight to the point. Down there, it was strictly about business. Having good conversations, honest conversations. That's really what meant the most to me was how straightforward it was. Syracuse was really blatant about what they wanted to do with me in that class and I really liked that." 

Freeman, a 6-9 forward who plays for St. John's College High in Washington (DC), is rated a four star prospect by all four major recruiting services (247Sports, ESPN, On3 and Rivals). He is ranked a top 35 prospect by 247Sports, ESPN and On3, but ranked 54th by Rivals.

During the 2022-23 season at St. John's College High, Freeman averaged 21 points and 8.5 rebounds per game. He led the first EYBL session in blocked shots and was named to the session's All Defensive Team. 

Syracuse's 2024 class currently includes sharpshooting guard Elijah Moore.

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.
