Class of 2027 OL Connor Long (NJ) COMMITTED TO SYRACUSE (10/22/25)

[Comstock44]

He's 6'8" 343 lbs. and his only other offers were from Toledo and Rhode Island? What gives?

Hs name is Phil Trautwein. Went to HS in NJ. Went to Florida, where he was a star and then had a long NFL career. Went to BC to become a GA, then got his first full time coaching job at Davidson.

Became BC’s OL coach, where he did well for 2 years. PSU snapped him up and he has been doing well there. He would be very expensive, and there are no direct ties to Fran, but I agree he would be a great hire.

If we replace Dale, I would expect someone who has coached with Jeff Nixon, and/or Fran.

Addazio gave him the shot at BC. Maybe that’s link enough?

He’s a classmate of my son.

Ask your son to subtly remind him that he won't be attending the University of Syracuse. Haha.

It's funny. I am kind of over it...

Just like misuse of the word "literal" or any use of the portmanteau "ginormous" used to grate on my ears, now I just move along.
