Four-star safety Tedarius Hughes signs with Syracuse

Kid looks a legit 6’3. Exactly what we need at the backend of our defense.

Really excited about this pick up.

Frosh starter, IMO. Once he gains some experience, he'll quickly be an upgrade from Deuce.

Definitely needs some weight, but certainly an upgrade. I’m not sure what happened to Deuce. His frosh year was remarkable. He was a sure tackler and was great in coverage. I don’t believe he was ever seriously injured, but he seemed to lose a step to play corner and just wasn’t big enough for safety.

Agree that his frosh year was his best. He played with Garret Williams, who has turned out to be a lock down NFL corner -- so maybe that made him look good.

I remember several times in games where teams would test Chestnut, and not throw at Williams. Deuce looked pretty good.

It was mostly downhill from there. I thought a move to FS would be for the best, due to his lack of pure speed, but he was mostly invisible his two years here, after transferring back from LSU. Not bad, but hardly an impact player. Weird.
