Colonia (N.J.) High School's Solomon Manning and Aquinas (Rochester, N.Y.) Institute's Jamir Jones both head to SU with scholarship offers already in hand. The 6-foot-2, 200-pound Manning is rated three stars and the No. 41 outside linebacker in the 2016 cycle by 247Sports.com's composite rankings. His offer sheet also includes North Carolina, Pittsburgh, Rutgers and Old Dominion, among others, after recording 100 tackles, five sacks and two forced fumbles last season, according to NJ.com. Manning, who informed Syracuse.com of the visit via Twitter direct message, recently told NJ.com's Todderick Hunt that he [URL='http://www.nj.com/rutgersfootball/index.ssf/2015/06/rutgers_offers_colonia_linebacker_solomon_manning.html'][U]plans on making a commitment decision[/U][/URL] by Monday.

The 6-foot-3, 220-pound Jones is rated three stars and the No. 64 outside linebacker in the 2016 cycle by 247Sports.com's composite rankings. His offer sheet also includes Pittsburgh, Boston College, Rutgers, Connecticut and Old Dominion, among others. Jones is considered by some to be an outside linebacker/defensive end prospect and others as an athlete who could play either side of the ball, [URL='http://usatodayhss.com/2015/more-than-one-fork-in-the-road-of-recruiting-for-jones'][U]according to USA Today[/U][/URL].
