"I think very highly of my Syracuse offer,” Hoots said to The Juice Online. “It is the first P4 offer and ACC offer I have received.”
Hoots received his offer from Brown

"He is a great human being who puts God first and cares about seeing players move to the next level whether that be on his team or somewhere else,” Hoots said. "Great coach with great wisdom.”
Aside from the offer, they covered a wide variety of topics.
"We spoke about my recruiting and God,” Hoots said. “We also spoke about things I can improve on in the future.”
Hoots enjoyed competing at Franchise Camp
As for the actual camp, Hoots appreciated the opportunity to compete with a wide and diverse set of prospects. He also enjoyed seeing SU’s facilities and campus.

Currently, Hoots said Syracuse is one of four schools standing out, with the others being Georgia Southern, Mercer and Colorado State.
He’s sketched out a timeline to pick his school.
