Highly motivated Division 1 student-athlete from France, recently graduated from Syracuse University, NY, USA, seeking to launch my professional career in the sports or sales industry in the US.

He is 24 now. Was fun to watch here. I wish him luck in his future endevours.

Aiden Arber is also not listed. He was another one of my favorites. Oyegunle also is not on the roster any longer. He would be a big loss. Also no Pagano brothers, no Rauch and no Leibold.

Lots of turnover.

He was drafted in the 2nd round by Chicago.

He was drafted in the 2nd round by Chicago.

Surprised by that. I thought he had a disappointing season.

Good luck to him though!

SU has updated the soccer roster to include the 10 players that joined the team for the spring semester.

I wanted to see what the roster will look like in September, so I tried to build it. This is what I came up with:

Kelvin da Costa Fr F NYC. NY*
Sachiel Ming Fr F Southampton, Bermuda*
Alex Wharton F Smyrna, GA
Quinn Olcutt Fr F Fayetteville, NY
Jack Grossman Fr M Walnut Creek, CA
Dominic Bell Fr D Orlando, FL
Kristjian Fortier Fr D Toronto, ON
Garrett Holman Fr D Hamburg, NJ*
Chimere Omeze Fr D, Brampton, ON
Sam Sery Fr D Gastonia, NC
Kyle Jansen Fr G Marietta, GA
Sam Coss Jr G Bowie, MD
Jason Smith Sr G Fresno, CA
Andre Cutler-DeJesus Sr D Mararoneck, NY
Sam Layton Sr M Brisbane, Australia
Ezra Widman So M NYC, NY
Nathan Scott So M San Jose, CA
Elton Chifamba Sr M Blacklick, OH
Nicholas Kaloukian Jr Wayne, NJ
Ernest Bawa Sr M/F Portor, Ghana
Carlos Zambrano Jr M Miami,FL
Gavin Wigg Gr D Columbus, OH
Ben Rosenblatt Gr D/M Huntington Woods, MI
Micah Gradus Sr M Bel Air, MD
Michael Acquah So F Awutu Bereku, Ghana
Daniel Burko Jr F Lovenstad, Norway
Trevor Carabin Jr M Stouffville, ON
Aboykye Bikyeombe So M Herriman, UT
Gabe Threadgold Sr M Bremerton, WA
Tomas Hut Sr G Nutley, NJ
Jaheim Wickham Jr G Brampton, ON

The three players with asterisks next to their names were 2024 HS AAs.

I believe we are bringing in 11 true frosh and 10 transfers all told. A ton of turnover.

I think we bring back 3 starters: Kaloukian, Wigg and Wickham. If we could win most of our OOC games and finish .500 in the ACC, that would IMHO be an excellent year for this group. It will probably not be ready until next season to comptee seriously in the ACC.

.500 in the ACC might be very tough for a group this young and inexperienced. The league, already what the SEC thinks it is in football, is getting even tougher with Stanford and SMU.

Agreed. I wasn't thrilled with the massive reliance on incoming transfers to address personnel losses after last season.

I like the more balanced approach Coach Mac is taking this year. Getting 3 HS AAs in the class is something we need to ensure long term stability.

I would be okay playing the really talented kids with some returning veterans and incoming transfer vets and making 2024 a build year, with the hopes of competing again for an ACC title in 2025.
