A few things to keep in mind. Recruiting was a major issue for the 13, 14 and 2015 class. It picked back up as of the 2016 class, was outstanding last year and despite this years ranking of 15, this current class is definitely a top 10 class. There has definitely been an uptick in recruiting which is evident when you look at how previously SU was bringing in 2-3 major transfers a year to supplement the roster, the last two years its been 1.

Decommits do happen unfortunately and we have been on both sides of it. Hopkins for example had 2-3 in their 2018 class including a top 50 kid, it happens. Keep in mind Lewandowski I believe was a flip to Syracuse as well as Dordevic and a few others. All that being said losing Partlette and Blake the last month + is certainly not good news especially Parlette ( can't blame Blake for going to Harvard). That said the 2020 class still has a lot of high end O talent ( don't want to lose anymore thought) and the staff now has multiple openings to fill and perhaps will target some of the higher end guys that remain uncommitted. I don't know the full story surrounding Parlette's decision but when your talking about early recruiting these things do happen. Just look at the high end defender we got last week he was a flip from UNC.
