Syracuse Orange

Syracuse football has landed one of the most explosive offensive weapons in the transfer portal. Georgia transfer wide receiver Yazeed Haynes committed to the Orange following an official visit over the weekend. Haynes is the second former Bulldog to transfer to Syracuse this offseason, joining fellow wideout Jackson Meeks. He has four years of eligibility remaining after redshirting this past season.

Haynes is listed at 6-1, 170 pounds and was a consensus four star recruit in the class of 2023. He was rated as high as 109th overall, the 18th best wide receiver and second best in the state of Pennsylvania per On3. Haynes was rated as low as 47th best wide receiver and fifth best in the state per 247Sports. His primary recruiter at Georgia out of high school was new Orange head coach Fran Brown. 

As a high school prospect, Haynes signed with the Bulldogs Boston College, Maryland, Minnesota, Ole Miss, Penn State, Rutgers and West Virginia. During his senior season of high school he recorded 55 catches for 1,212 yards and 13 touchdowns. That is over 22 yards per reception. He reportedly ran a 4.39 40-time, showing off his elite speed and explosive ability. Haynes played for North Penn High School in Pennsylvania.

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.
