Syracuse Orange

Syracuse football is on the board in the 2024 recruiting class. Local star wide receiver Syair Torrence, who plays at Christian Brothers Academy in Syracuse, committed to Syracuse football Wednesday afternoon. He announced the decision on social media. The 5-11, 185 pounder also had an offer from Buffalo, but was on the radar of several other power five programs. 

"The trusting process was getting better and better each week," Torrence said of his decision. "I wanted to take the big stage of being a hometown hero." 

Torrence is the younger brother of current Orange point guard Symir Torrence and has been one of the best high school players in Central New York for the last couple of seasons. He has been in attendance for nearly every home game this season. 

Syair had a strong junior season and led CBA to the Class AA Championship Game. While the Brothers lost to Cicero North Syracuse, Torrence had a stellar game with seven catches for 143 yards and two touchdowns. In addition, he recorded two sacks defensively. 

Syracuse has one wide receiver committed in its 2023 class in speedster Bryce Cohoon out of Maize High in Kansas. The commitment from Torrence is the earliest pledge for the Orange in a cycle in at least the last 10 years.

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.
