Syracuse Football 2025-2026 Depth Chart

[HRE Otto IV]

Losing Diggs, Wax, Barron, Clark will hurt big time. Good news is the D can’t be worse despite the talent lost.

Might have to play a 5-0-6 D next year.

 

[shu 49]

Working it.

DL, I’d go Jobity, Watson, Perry to start. Rush end is open.

LB - wide open

Corners - I think they are good in the two deep. Kerr has speed, needs to learn. Barnes needs to get stronger.

Safety - Duce and Grant return. Not sure 29 is the answer.

OL - Spoon. Dave W, J Cruz, have inside track, need to get better. ECruz at guard, Miller at center? Need to be better at run blocking.

TE - Clement, Tremble, Villari - should be a good trio.

Wr - Pena, JRS, Haynes, Gill, Hatcher, Ross, Hornsby.

Rb - Get LQA a bag 3x what a UDFA gets and a big ins policy. Make it a business decision. Willis, Nixon, James

Down the list
dline need 1 stud end and a run stopping dlineman.
need at least 1 stud here too
corners i like them with the 2 sophmores starting.
Safety need to replace Clark
oline needs a Jr transfer who will start day 1 and will have 2 years. we can get rest of them from our guys in house.
rest on offense will be good again.

 

[shu 49]

I think Peña might be NFL bound

Why if he can make money here.

 

[shu 49]

I was told yesterday that Sparrow was returning. He had pictures taken with a friends son.

Good

 

[shu 49]

Wonder if JRS slides over to OGII’s slot, Gill gets Meeks’s routes, then Ross or a transfer gets an opp to be WR3 assuming Trebor stays.

Tremble also

 

[mustacheovich]

Why if he can make money here.

Apparently you can make money in the NFL as well

 

[shu 49]

Apparently you can make money in the NFL as well

Not guaranteed.

Damn - that’s 128 players. Musical chairs gonna be lit.

 

[hoopsupstate]

Damn - that’s 128 players. Musical chairs gonna be lit.

It doesn’t even include some guys who may come back.

 

[upperdeck]

Sparrow had a cramp. He came back in

 

[MamesJungro]

what’s up with hatcher? Injury didn’t look good in real time, and if it takes a year to recover he’s going to miss all of 25

 

[corpjet]

I think James Heard will be a solid LB’er for us next year and for many years to come.

 

[OrangeTarheel]

I think James Heard will be a solid LB’er for us next year and for many years to come.

He didn’t play much this year hunh? is he redshirt eligible?

 

[corpjet]

He didn’t play much this year hunh? is he redshirt eligible?

Think he used that up his first year at WVU

 

[orangemass]

Sparrow's injury looked bad last night. Non-contact. Possible achilles?

Didn’t he return?

 

[RMH44]

Didn’t he return?

I don't think so. He got hurt on a kickoff/touch back.

 

[GoSU96]

Didn’t he return?

He was back covering kicks in the 4th q

 

[OttoinGrotto]

what’s up with hatcher? Injury didn’t look good in real time, and if it takes a year to recover he’s going to miss all of 25

Yeah, I'm a bit worried about that. Really terrible career ender if so.

 

[SUFaninNJ]

Yeah, I'm a bit worried about that. Really terrible career ender if so.

I haven't heard what the injury is, but he had on a knee brace Saturday and also was on crutches. The way that he couldn't put any pressure on his leg when the injury occurred made me think that it's more than the MCL sprain that Fran mentioned.

 

[Cusefan69]

So given the expanded number of scholarships for 2025 and moving forward, what is the thinking on numbers per position group? To me you expand out dline, oline, linebackers and secondary.
