Syracuse Orange

Class of 2025 Avon (CT) Old Farms athlete Rayshon Andrews picked up an offer from Syracuse during his visit for Junior Day on Saturday. Andrews, a 6-3, 185 pounder who plays wide receiver and cornerback in high school, also holds offers from Akron, Boston College and Connecticut, among others. Andrews is being recruited as a cornerback for the Orange. 

"I came down for the junior day," Andrews said. "Met with all the coaches and had a great time at the basketball game. Then me and coach Fran had a one on one conversation that he believes I got the talent they want. He was watching my film and told me he liked what he saw with my size and athleticism, and he would love to have me come play for him. 

"I was ecstatic. He's a coach I definitely would want to play for and they got a lot of good going on for the program. So it was good to hear he believes in me and what I can do." 

Andrews enjoyed meeting the coaches and getting to know them on a more personal level. 

"Meeting them was like talking to a friend," Andrews said. "They talked to me as a person not just a coach and that stood out to me. We talked about how they want to further their program and the plans they have for it." 

Another highlight of the visit was attending the basketball game between Syracuse and Miami in the Dome. 

"The atmosphere was crazy," Andrews said. "You can tell the fan base really cares about their spots. The buzzer beater was lit. The whole stadium went crazy." 

After visiting, Andrews says Syracuse is one of his top options. He hopes to take an official visit at some point. Next up is a visit to Penn State next weekend and to UConn on February 3rd.

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.
