Syracuse Orange

Syracuse football has landed a commitment from junior college offensive lineman Lysander Moeolo. Moeolo is listed at 6-6, 330 pounds on the Navarro College Athletics website. He picked the Orange over offers from Fresno State, Louisiana Monroe, Western Kentucky, Colorado State and Hawaii. 

As a high school prospect, Moeolo starred for Timberline High in Washington. He signed with Nevada as part of its 2021 recruiting class. He ended up going the junior college route, however, and enrolled at Navarro Community College in Texas. 

At 6-6, 330 pounds, Moeolo instantly becomes one of Syracuse's largest offensive lineman. The Orange is expected to lose Matthew Bergeron to the NFL Draft in the offseason. Therefore, there is an opportunity to compete for immediate playing time. 

Moeolo is the 10th player to commit to Syracuse in its 2023 recruiting class and first junior college prospect. He is the second offensive lineman joining Jayden Bass out of Springfield Central in Massachusetts. Bass pledged Orange in July. 

The addition of Moeolo ends a quiet spell for Syracuse in terms of commitments. All nine previous verbals occurred between March and July of this year. Moeolo is first commitment in three months. That is not a significant surprise, however, as the 2023 class was expected to be on the smaller side.

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.
