For some prediction threads around here, no? Getting to mid-July now.

Couple thoughts and musings that ran through my head in the meantime.

Assuming Blair will make it, when's the last time Syracuse had a recruiting class with "0" academic casualties? This is just off the top of my head, but, since I've been following recruiting, I don't know if I can recall this happening.

I think there's a misnomer out there that for Syracuse to get the athletes they need to compete, they'll need to take riskier kids. While  I know of 3 recruits who needed to have significant work done, the rest of the class was pretty solid from what I understand.

I've heard the new philosophy is to take a player with a better work ethic, character and grades over athleticism. I think that played out a lot over the last cycle. Obviously, it's apparent this cycle.

I also think our last two recruiting classes will prove to be significant upgrades from the years prior. There will be a lot of contributors early in their careers from these two classes.
