3-star Florida TE Aaron Hackett puts Syracuse football in Top 5; will visit in July (PS: Bailey)

Earlier in the school year, Aaron Hackett would joke around with Beckett Wales about following in his footsteps at Syracuse.

The former, a Class of 2017 tight end at Venice (Fla.) High School. The latter, an ex-Orange starter now coaching tight ends at Venice, where he once played.

Two weeks ago, those conversations turned a little more serious. That's when SU extended Hackett a scholarship offer.

"(Wales) definitely wants me to take a visit and check it out for myself," Hackett said. "He wants me to explore it and go wherever I feel most comfortable."

The 6-foot-3, 225-pound Hackett will visit SU the weekend of July 30 after checking out South Florida (July 23) and Louisville (July 16). He listed those three programs, along with Florida Atlantic and Cincinnati, in his Top 5 and is eager to find a school that can be a "home away from home."...

committed??

why you say that?

It's weird, on Syracuse.com's main page it says he's committed but when you click on the article it says we are in the top 5.

why you say that?

Syracuse and Central NY Sports News, Photos, Videos and Opinions - syracuse.com

Front page says he committed but inside the article says we are top 5 with a visit scheduled.

3-star TE Aaron Hackett named Syracuse to his Top 5 along with Louisville, Cincinnati, USF and FAU. Will commit whenever he's comfortable.


LRT: 3-star TE Aaron Hackett will visit Syracuse the weekend of July 30. Also plans on visiting USF on 7/23 and possible Louisville on 7/16.

One last Hackett nugget: He was told that Syracuse plans to take two TEs this cycle, ideally one HS and one JUCO.

 

[CuseLegacy]

Just bumping this as he is suppose to be visiting this weekend.

Also 24/7 predicts that he will commit to SU.

SB: Are there any other positions or recruits that you're really pushing for?

There's a whole bunch of them. We really only need one running back and we're going for Tayon Fleet-Davis. Two tight ends, (Aaron) Hackett and then another tight end and then some o-linemen and we should be set on offense.

Here's hoping that he gets felt up right.

Here's hoping that he gets felt up right.

How long is he here for. Today and tomorrow?

 

[CuseCrew08]

Is he our #2 option at TE right now?

Here's hoping that he gets felt up right.

That's at Llvll.

 

[Deano]

Me thinks he's coming to the Cuse.

 

[rackman18]

He looks like he has all the fundamentals down and he has good hands, nice route runner, and a good blocker. He would be a very good get.

Is he our #2 option at TE right now?

The staff wants two TE's so Hackett is a definite take. I would assume Reeves is the top guy but they like Hackett a lot.
