In a recent interview with SyracuseOnSI publisher Mike McAllister, Jemison said in part, “Syracuse is definitely high on my list. It was a really good visit. Coach G-Mac (Gerry McNamara) and coach Red (Adrian Autry) and all the staff, they really made me feel like it’s a good place that could take me to the next level. I would just say it was a good experience.”
According to McAllister’s piece, Jemison is eyeing more potential visits, likely in the spring, with suitors in the mix including Notre Dame, Xavier, Virginia and Providence.
