Carter also had an offer from [URL='http://temple.At their request, this network is being blocked from this site./'][U]Temple[/U][/URL]. Carter officially visited Syracuse the weekend of January 23rd and loved everything about his on campus trip. A few days later, with signing day right around the corner, he committed to the Orange, per a source. ”The first thing he said was ‘I don’t want to leave,’” Plainfield head coach Jason Glezman said after the visit. “He really did enjoy his visit. Coach Shafer and the whole program there, one thing they really try to show you is the genuine family atmosphere they have there. It was very evident throughout his visit the level of comfort that Kenny felt being around the coaches, the players and the facilities. That was one of the biggest things for him was feeling comfortable around these people. ”The facilities there speak for themselves. We went to the basketball game and I told him there were 30,000 people there. He’s like, ‘there were 30,000 people there?’ So I told him, ‘yeah man and there’s 50,000 when there are football games, so it’s crazy.’ The new practice facility they have, he kind of got googly eyed when he saw that. He loved it. He loved every second of it. Carter is listed at 6-foot-4, 250 pounds. He will come to Syracuse as an athlete who could play either defensive line position. His bigger upside may be at defensive tackle, but he has the versatility to play end as well. He is Syracuse's fourth commitment out of New Jersey, joining the aforementioned Pickard, [URL='http://syracuse.At their request, this network is being blocked from this site./a.z?s=185&p=8&c=1&nid=6813021'][U]Dontae Strickland[/U][/URL] and [URL='http://syracuse.At their request, this network is being blocked from this site./a.z?s=185&p=8&c=1&nid=6946153'][U]Daivon Ellison[/U][/URL]. He is Syracuse's 26th pledge in the 2015 class. ”Before the play starts, he’s 6-foot-3, 6-4, 250-pounds,” Glezman said. “He’s got a wingspan I can’t even measure. He’s got size 18 shoes. You look at him right off the bat and physically he’s got all of the tools. When the play happens, you talk about quick twitch at the line of scrimmage guy, he’s so quick off the line and he can penetrate gaps so quickly. ”He uses his speed and athleticism to his advantage. It’s remarkable what he can do there. He’s disruptive. Whether he’s a two, a three, a four guy, wherever he is on the d-line, he’s disruptive. He uses his size to his advantage and that’s what you see on film. He’s just going to get better as he gets older and matures into his body.” [/QUOTE]
