Class of 2025 DE/LB Sharlandiin Strange (PA) COMMITTED TO SYRACUSE (1/27/24)

[atlanticuse]

That’s a pretty high percentage

Something tells me Devo > Strange in maths.

 

[phil77]

Great way to start the class !!!!!

 

[ottodaorange]

Great job by the staff!

I’m sure they know there’s lots of work ahead to keep him.

I know they won’t sleep on Slippery Rock.

Yes, now a Slippery Rock joke. However, once upon a time Slippery Rock, a very good Div 3 team, was rumored to play PSU.

However, never happened.

And with Strange’s commit I’m pretty sure we were all wrong about first commit of the 2025 class - and that means there are a number of other 4 star prospects that could come on board soon as well.

Still pretty good... they were 12-2 in 2023 and lost in the NCAA Div II Quarterfinal round.

Not surprised that a PA kid would be offered by them.

Red zone woes cost Rock in 28-16 loss to Kutztown - Slippery Rock University Athletics

No. 15 Slippery Rock outgained Kutztown by nearly 300 yards and didn't allow the Bears to cross midfield in the second half, but went 2-for-7 in the red zone and

I know we’re all used to Fran’s magic already, but Strange is a kid we would have died for w Dino, SS, Marrone. An absolute great start to the 25 class. This is going to be fun

When you're strange... Faces come out of the rain... When you're strange

Hopefully The Doors reference isn't lost on everyone here. Great recruit to light the 2025 class' fire

Love it, popping the 2025 cherry with a
4 star ️️️️

 

[cuseallday]

All I gotta say is, it was a nice little Saturday. Hoops win. Bing in the Ring of Honor. Strange on board. Let's make Sunday equally as fun with a women's hoops win.

2 months ago, CoachFran was announced to be CUSE's next football coach.
A 50th ranked class(2024) is now in the 30s...and the 2025 class leads off with a 4 star.
S/C program has been revamped.

You think back to last season...a string of 30 point losses.
Cuse barely made a bowl game and then embarrassed itself.
I just hope CNY fans support this team. Get 38K in the seats...even when we play Slippery Rock.

He was quoting his post predicting Strange would be our first 2025 recruit.

Gotcha. Good call Cusesky.

Nope, ezbeezee predicted it, was the first one to do so.

I'd link to my 'Who will be the first commit' post, but I'm not (merely) in it for the self-aggrandizement--or the likes.

 

[SUFaninNJ]

So let’s not talk about any recruit until they are on the field because they may or may not actually play. Better yet, I’ll delete my original post and I’ll check in with all you guys to see what’s ok to post or not. Will that make you all feel better?

That was after Strange started getting analyst predictions. So it made him a logical pick. If you go back to your thread when you posted it, we didn’t have any 2025’s with analyst predictions. I was the one that posted that Strange had Rivals analyst predictions in this thread lol.

Before the analyst predictions no one was picking Strange. That was sorta my point here.

OK, Kids, Who Is Our First 2025 Commit?

Place your bets now. Might not be much longer before we find out...

Did any staff confirm this?

Confirm what? There's nothing to confirm. Its a verbal commitment, they cant comment on anything until he actually signs as a senior

Slippery Rock should play Stoney Brook.

Warms my heart to hear stories like this about Orange Nation loving up our recruits.

Slippery Rock should play Stoney Brook.

It would be a rock fight for sure.
