Syracuse Orange

Class of 2025 Washington (DC) Riverdale Baptist offensive lineman Jayvon McFadden is a four star prospect per Rivals and a top 300 prospect by Rivals and ESPN. He has a plethora of scholarship offers and spent Saturday on the Syracuse campus to get a closer look at the program. 

"The visit was very interesting," McFadden said. "The best parts for me were that I got to spend a lot of time with coach Williams. He made sure to let me know I'm a priority for them and they want me at their program. Also coach Fran made sure he was very honest with me and straightforward with me. Not trying to beat around the bush with me. I feel that's best for our relationship. I value honesty and look forward to continuing our relationship. He's my guy." 

The 6-4, 270 pounder also enjoyed taking in Syracuse basketball's 72-69 win over Miami that ended on an Orange buzzer beater. 

"The game was very competitive and the fans that were there were very into the game," McFadden said. "It was a crazy game at the end with the buzzer beat. The fans went insane. Overall the atmosphere was great as was the support. I didn't even know what to say (when the final shot went in). I was just like, 'wow. He's nice.'"

After spending time with the Syracuse coaches and seeing more of what the program has to offer, the Orange remains a serious option for him moving forward. 

"Me and Cuse stand well with each other," McFadden said. "Coach Fran is my guy and I'm excited to keep building our relationship."

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.
