Bethea, a 6-foot-4 guard from Philadelphia, was scheduled to visit Syracuse this weekend.

Reached via text, Bethea’s father refused to comment. If Bethea commits to Miami as expected, it will continue the Hurricanes’ success in recruiting out of Philadelphia. Former Miami players Ja’Quan Newton, Lonnie Walker IV and Davon Reed are all Philadelphia natives. All three played AAU ball with Team Final, which is the same AAU club that Bethea plays for. In addition, Miami assistant coach DJ Irving previously coached for Team Final and was also an assistant at Philadelphia’s Roman Catholic High School. ...[/I] [B][URL="https://www.syracuse.com/orangebasketball/2023/09/syracuse-is-participating-in-fundraiser-for-maui-wildfire-relief-ahead-of-maui-invitational.html"]Syracuse is participating in fundraiser for Maui wildfire relief ahead of Maui Invitational[/URL] (PS; Ditota)[/B] [I]Syracuse University has provided signed items from Jim Boeheim, Dino Babers and Adrian Autry to a Hoops for ‘Ohana online auction and fundraiser to benefit the Hawai’i Community Foundation’s Maui Strong Fund.

Face value for all of those tickets is $25. The Savannah Banana experience combines athletes and entertainers into a show that balances baseball, backflips and break-dancing. While baseball has developed a reputation as a slow-moving game that doesn’t appeal to younger fans, the Bananas tricks are tailor-made for those who grew up on social media and seek constant engagement. The team has 2 million followers on Instagram from across the country. To put that in perspective, the popular Syracuse men’s basketball team has 129,000. ...[/I] [/QUOTE]
