The Orange grabbed former Florida Atlantic University wide receiver D’Marcus Adams out of the portal on Friday. This will be Adams’ second transfer after originally signing with Florida State in 2018. Adams will come to Syracuse as a graduate transfer and be eligible to play in the fall. Adams is a former high school All-American and track star from Mainland High School in Florida. He also ran track at Florida State. He first committed to Florida State under former coach Jimbo Fisher, then signed with the Seminoles after Fisher left for Texas A&M and Willie Taggart got the job. Adams is a burner. He reportedly ran a 4.37 40 at the Jimbo Fisher Camp in 2017, around the time he committed. He was credited with 26 receptions for 592 yards, an average of 22.8 yards per reception, with three touchdowns as a senior in high school. His college career has yet to take off to that degree. He has three catches in three seasons after taking a redshirt at FSU in 2018. He left that program after not seeing the field in 2019. Adams has also been utilized as a return specialist throughout his career. His arrival at FAU in 2020 coincided with Taggart’s in Boca Raton. Adams appeared in seven games then as a redshirt sophomore and later worked at cornerback throughout preseason camp before sticking at receiver the following year. Syracuse wide receivers coach Michael Johnson Sr. spent last season at FAU as a co-offensive coordinator and quarterbacks coach. Syracuse offered Adams one of its last available scholarships for this recruiting cycle. The 6-foot, 180-pounder brings an athletic resume to the team. His high school track accomplishments include five regional championships. He placed second in the 400-meter dash and third in the 110-meter hurdles as a senior at the 3A state championship meet. He also participated in the long jump and as a member of the 4×400 relay team. His 110-meter hurdle time of 13.82 was the nation’s fifth-fastest high school time in 2018.
