Syracuse basketball 2022 target Ty Rodgers is one of the top wings across the country in his class, and he has about a dozen scholarship offers from a range of high-major teams.
The 6-foot-6 Rodgers, a junior at Grand Blanc Community High School in Grand Blanc, Mich., has spoken highly of the Orange coaching staff and the ‘Cuse program as a whole.
I’ve read a lot about the four-star Rodgers in Orange chat rooms over the past bunch of months, and a lot of ‘Cuse fans feel that Syracuse basketball is in a good place with him. Some recruiting analysts, too, have spoken about the solid possibility that Rodgers could ultimately end up choosing the ‘Cuse.
Rodgers’ other offers, by the way, include from Michigan, Michigan State, Ohio State, Maryland, Houston, Marquette, Missouri, Rhode Island, Florida State, Louisville, Vanderbilt and Temple.
Syracuse basketball faces stiff competition for 2022 four-star wing Ty Rodgers.
Rodgers, a top-80 player nationally in the 2022 cycle, has said in the past that he consistently communicates with Syracuse basketball head coach Jim Boeheim and his staff, but Rodgers has also said that he speaks regularly with Michigan head coach Juwan Howard, among others.
There are a lot of stellar squads which have offered Rodgers, and more offers are likely to arrive for him in the near future, but the suitor that gives me the most concern as it pertains to the Orange’s chances of landing Rodgers is without question the Wolverines.
Michigan has put forth a tremendous 2020-21 campaign as one of the premier teams in the sport and a No. 1 seed in the NCAA Tournament. Additionally, with Howard leading the way, the Wolverines have absolutely crushed it of late on the recruiting trail.
I’ve seen some stories about Rodgers online that point to the Michigan coaching staff making him one of the top priorities for the Wolverines in the 2022 class. That’s worrisome, if you ask me.
There aren’t any analyst predictions for Rodgers on the 247Sports Web site or Rivals.com at this juncture, and his recruiting process could still have a way to go.
I do think that Syracuse basketball will remain in the running for Rodgers, especially considering that Boeheim is apparently touching base consistently with the 2022 player. However, it wouldn’t surprise me at all if Michigan eventually finds itself as the front-runner for Rodgers.
