<!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Fran Brown has entered the Dome, and there is no looking back in Syracuse, NY. Honing from Camden New Jersey, Fran has made an instant impact on recruiting within the state of New Jersey. With some recruits flipping to commit to the Orange, and others transferring in, Syracuse is a head of schedule when it comes to a rebuild. While they finished the regular season 6-6 last season, Syracuse's 2024 schedule makes not only a winning record very realistic, but a contender for the ACC Championship is within sight as well. Here are some of the commits heading upstate that will have an immediate impact on Syracuse's success next season. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["380411"],"_player_evaluations_0_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"","_player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations_0_evaluation":"Bringing in the number one recruit in the state, Kyle McCord and Co. will be thrilled to add [player_tooltip player_id='380411' first='Emanuel' last='Ross'] to their aerial assault. Arguably the most college ready player in New Jersey, Emanuel has the dimensions to dominate downfield. Scoring 14 offensive touchdowns and over 1000 yards between the ground and air, Emanuel was a nightmare to 1 on 1 coverage in 2023.rnrnThis is one of the most explosive players out of the gate. When running the ball, he has the ability to turn upfield and accelerate like few others can.  Emanuel outcompetes the defender for the ball as he consistently catches it at its highest point. Flipping from Stanford to Syracuse, Emanuel will play a pivotal role in Syracuse's rebuilt offense.","_player_evaluations_0_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations":1,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"mode":"edit","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-65411b575a0be"} /--> <!-- wp:acf/hudl {"name":"acf/hudl","data":{"embed_code":"u003ciframe src='https://www.hudl.com/embed/video/3/14707906/654100862347d70bf0d7bb1e' width='640' height='360' frameborder='0' allowfullscreenu003eu003c/iframeu003e","_embed_code":"field_62daf7995fd8c"},"mode":"edit","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-656d2413bc470"} /--> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["172517"],"_player_evaluations_0_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"","_player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations_0_evaluation":"Not only did Syracuse snag the top receiver in New Jersey, but they were able to bring in the highest ranked running back in New Jersey as well in [player_tooltip player_id='172517' first='Yasin' last='Willis']. Yasin had an impressive senior season, as he ran the ball into the end zone 12 times and compiled just under 1000 offensive yards. A back that had a ton of success running it up the gut, there is zero fluff in Yasin's running style. He makes ones cut and hits the hole with speed and power. With the strength and size of a linebacker, it was no easy task to bring Yasin down to the ground. He would simply break through multiple tackles as he continued on to the end zone.","_player_evaluations_0_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations":1,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"mode":"edit","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-65411b575a169"} /--> <!-- wp:acf/hudl {"name":"acf/hudl","data":{"embed_code":"u003ciframe src='https://www.hudl.com/embed/video/3/16935221/6342e6efc124290a7815b8dd' width='640' height='360' frameborder='0' allowfullscreenu003eu003c/iframeu003e","_embed_code":"field_62daf7995fd8c"},"mode":"edit","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-656d2413bc520"} /--> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["375322"],"_player_evaluations_0_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"","_player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations_0_evaluation":"It's no secret that Syracuse saw New Jersey as a goldmine for receiver talent.

With elite speed and lateral movement, Fatim was able to bring pressure and flood the QB out of the pocket all season long, only to chase them down from behind for the sack.
