One of Syracuse basketball's priority targets in the 2024 class is Robert Wright out of Neumann-Goretti High School in Philadelphia. The Orange has recruited Wright hard for a while, and Wright was on campus over the weekend to attend Elite Camp.

"I feel like it was a great camp," Wright said. "It was a good experience. The facilities looked nice. The coaches were great. I learned more about moving without the ball, changing pace when coming off screens and stuff like that. They taught us that. I had a good time down there. It felt like a family environment."

Throughout the time Syracuse has been recruiting Wright, he has developed a strong relationship with the coaching staff.

"They're recruiting me very hard," Wright said. "G-Mac is doing it the most. They want me to come and run their team one day. To come in and lead them back to the championship."

After the camp was over, the Syracuse coaches praised his performance during camp.

"They said thanks for coming," Wright said. "They said they loved the way I performed. They already know, they've seen me play before. This wasn't their first time."

During the weekend, Syracuse offered Wright's teammate at Team Final AAU Thomas Sorber. Sorber is a talented big in the 2024 class.

"I was happy for him because he's been talking about it for a minute, getting a Syracuse offer," Wright said. "For him to get it at camp was good. He's a big that has some of the best footwork in the country. I don't think there's a big that has better footwork than him. He has great touch, can shoot the three, he can shoot it from anywhere. He's good in pick and roll action, pick and pop. He can do it all."

Wright says he does not have any ranking of the schools that have offered or are in contact. He has a Baylor official visit scheduled for September 1st and is working on scheduling one for Syracuse this fall or winter.

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.
