Official Visit Preview: Deandre Duffus

Class of 2023 offensive lineman Deandre Duffus has one of the most impressive offer lists of any player at his position in his cycle. The 6-4, 330 pounder has more than two dozen offers and is starting to take official visits. The Chaminade-Madonna (FL) will visit Syracuse this weekend. Here is a look back on his recruitment.
January 2021
Deandre Duffus bust onto the recruiting scene in January of 2021 with offers from Florida, Maryland, Penn State, Miami and Oregon. With that group early in the recruiting process, it became clear Duffus would be a highly coveted national recruit.
Spring/Summer 2021
Duffus stayed hot on the recruiting trail with several more power five programs extending offers including Michigan State, Tennessee, Pittsburgh, Louisville, Georgia Tech and Ole Miss.
Fall of 2021 - More Offers
During a strong junior season, Duffus picked up even more power five scholarship opportunities. Indiana, Colorado and Texas A&M all offered. In addition, Duffus took a visit to Miami to watch the Hurricanes play Appalachian State.
Spring 2022
Duffus visited Miami and Indiana in April. Syracuse, NC State and West Virginia offered between April and June.
Official Visits
Duffus took an official visit to Maryland from June 10th-12th. He said it went very well and his family enjoyed the trip calling the Terps a top option. This weekend he officially visits Syracuse while the following weekend (June 24th-26th) the Hoosiers will host him.
Decision Timeframe
The plan is to take the three currently scheduled officials, weigh the pros and cons of each school and make a decision sometime after the visits. A decision could come in July or August.

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.
