Watched him play against Cazenovia this year, he is a big kid. He seemed to move pretty good. They also used him inside the five as their fullback.

He hasn't announced. I always like to let the kid have his moment.

Local all-state defensive lineman Elijah Wright commits to Syracuse as walk-on

Wright accepts a preferred walk-on scholarship from the Orange.

I'm going to make a prediction right now: Wright will end up being about 285 in two years, and eventually factor into the DT rotation as platoon depth. He'll eventually see the field and contribute, despite coming here as a PWO.

Do walk OBS get to redshirt?

Defensive back?

 

[SU in Hershey]

Defensive back?

Well, it would be a twist on the whole “Proper dedication to S&C” wouldn’t it? Grooming D-linemen to play in the secondary ...wow!!!

Do walk OBS get to redshirt?

Walk ons? Yes. Usually do.

He's not a d'back. He played on the offensive and defensive lines. Headline is wrong.

 

[TexanMark]

Nice get. I assume SU will offer him some decent merit money.

Walk ons? Yes. Usually do.

Anybody redshirts. 5 years to play 4

 

[Dcuse]

Has a ways to go in the strength department but if he’s the grinder he looks like...he can get there.
