Put These Guys On the Radar - Matt Kinnear
Billy Dwan, D, Syracuse
It’s not easy to call someone with the last name Dwan and his recruiting profile “under the radar,” but he is coming in to his own. He and Syracuse’s week against Delaware then Duke might be the best few days for a defense this year. He helped shut down Brennan O’Neill and Duke in a flex for the Orange D.
Mason Kohn, FO, Syracuse
The Tufts transfer is ninth nationally in face-off win percentage (.620), but his impact is among the biggest in the country. The possession advantage has flipped a switch for the Orange O, and Kohn’s ability to win and create offense is special. But Kohn isn't the only one. Put a bunch of other face-off guys in this category: Bryant’s Nathan LaLiberte (.692) and Villanova’s Justin Coppola (.624) come to mind.
Carter Rice, SSDM, Syracuse
Patrick McEwen posed the question after the Orange’s dismantling of Duke’s offense. “How many Cuse defenders need to be on my All-American ballot?” Rice is on that shortlist at a position that many have a tough time evaluating.
