In this story:


Player: Lysander Moeolo

Position: Offensive Line

Height/Weight: 6-6, 330 lbs

School: Navarro College (TX)

Notable Offers: Fresno State, Hawaii, Marshall, Western Kentucky

Recruiting Recap: Syracuse offered Moeolo in October as it looked for experienced help along the offensive line for the 2023 season. It only took a few weeks before Moeolo committed to the Orange. He took his official visit in December and helped recruit other players to join him in Central New York. 

Evaluation: The first thing you notice about Moeolo is his size. Listed at 6-6, 330 pounds on the Navarro College Athletics website, he stands out even when next to other offensive linemen. Moeolo uses that size to generate power at the point of attack, moves well enough to get to the second level and plays with a mean streak. He played primarily left tackle at Navarro, but would seem to be able to fit in at right tackle or perhaps even slide inside to guard if needed. The key for Moeolo to get onto the two deep right away is working on refining technique such as footwork, recognizing pass rushing moves to counter them, playing with leverage and quickness out of his stance. There is a lot to work with here and you certainly cannot teach that size.

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.
