Syracuse football is experiencing a busy month in June as far as official visits to the Hill by 2023 recruiting targets and commits.
And while some Syracuse football recruits in the rising-senior class have picked schools other than the Orange of late, the ‘Cuse does appear to be in a good position with several talented players in the 2023 cycle, according to some experts.
Per a review of the 247Sports Web site, Rivals.com and the On3 Web site, the Orange boasts solid analyst “buzz” for 2023 targets Zyian Moultrie-Goddard, Jalil Smith and Eric King.
Syracuse football could potentially add some new commits to its 2023 class soon.
While the ‘Cuse presently has three commits in its 2023 cycle, that number is likely to grow in the near future, assuming some recent projections from analysts hold true.
Moultrie-Goddard, a three-star linebacker, and edge Smith both recently took official visits to the Orange campus, while King, a three-star offensive lineman, is expected to travel to Central New York for a visit on June 24.
Brian Dohn, a well-known national recruiting analyst for 247Sports, has predicted that Syracuse football will land commitments from Moultrie-Goddard, Smith and King.
There is also one projection in the direction of the ‘Cuse for Moultrie-Goddard on Rivals.com. That recruiting service’s Web site also has at least three predictions for the Orange as it pertains to King’s recruitment.
Additionally, On3’s recruiting prediction machine gives Syracuse football a massive amount of speculative momentum in the recruiting processes of Moultrie-Goddard, Smith and King.
The 6-foot-2, 240-pound Moultrie-Goddard attends the Iona Preparatory School in New Rochelle, N.Y. He is one of the top prospects out of New York state in his class, according to 247Sports.
The 6-foot-5, 230-pound Smith, an underrated 2023 player in my opinion, attends Abraham Lincoln High School in Brooklyn, N.Y. Finally, the 6-foot-3, 300-pound King is an excellent offensive lineman from the Saint Peter’s Preparatory School in Jersey City, N.J.
We’ll obviously continue to track the recruiting processes of King, Smith and Moultrie-Goddard moving forward. While I’m not a recruiting analyst, I do believe that Syracuse football is quite likely to secure one or more of these 2023 prospects.
