Syracuse Football: Michigan analyst buzz for 4-star CB officially visiting SU in June

Four-star cornerback/athlete Dawayne Galloway Jr. from Ohio, a consensus top-200 national prospect in the 2025 class, plans to officially visit Syracuse football next month.

While he has many impressive suitors, and the 6-foot, 175-pound Galloway appears to have a high interest in the Orange, a Big Ten Conference powerhouse is garnering some analyst buzz for him.
