Syracuse Orange

Syracuse football has landed a commitment from Michigan City (IN) High running back Jaden Hart, he announced on Saturday during his official visit. Hart, a 6-0, 180 pound running back chose the Orange offers from Duke, Iowa State, Kentucky, Minnesota, Nebraska, Purdue and several others. He was also receiving interest from Notre Dame, Wisconsin, Indiana, Michigan State and Iowa. 

Hart had previously visited Syracuse in April for an unofficial and the Orange continued to prioritize him after that. During his initial visit, he met head coach Dino Babers and spent time with him in person for the first time. 

"It was great," Hart said. "He's a very down to earth and straightforward guy. We talked about everything, really. The direction of the program, and just great conversations."

The relationship with the coaching staff, success with previous running backs and how the offensive scheme utilizes its running back proved key in Syracuse's ability to land Hart. Landing a running back with several power five offers is a big recruiting win for the Orange. 

Hart is currently rated as a high three-star prospect on each of the major recruiting services. 247Sports ranks him the 60th best running back in the class. ESPN puts him 50th while On3 ranks him as the 64th best at his position.

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.
