Syracuse head basketball coach Jim Boeheim discussed a variety of topics during the ACC teleconference on Monday. Most notably, he provided an update on freshman center Peter Carey's rehab. Carey was declared out for the season after undergoing a procedure on his knee early in the season.

"He's not back at practice yet," Boeheim said. "He hasn't been cleared. He should be fine. It looks healthy. I like what he was doing, he's very active. Very active big guy. Just got to get stronger and getting this knee fixed was important. It's the same procedure he had on his other knee last year and that's fine. We think he's going to be one hundred percent healthy. He just needs a couple more months to get back to full speed."

While Carey is not back at practice yet, he is able to do work in other areas.

"He's doing all his weight room stuff," Boeheim said. "He's doing lower body and upper body now."

Carey is listed at 6-11, 200 pounds and appeared in three games before the injury. He played 20 total minutes, grabbed three rebounds, blocked one shot and had one assist over those three games.

One of six members of the Orange's 2022 class, Carey signed with Syracuse out of Northfield Mount Hermon in Massachusetts. He also had offers from Bryant, Iona, Rutgers and St. Bonaventure, among others.

Title: Publisher All Syracuse Education: Roberts Wesleyan College Location: Syracuse, New York Expertise: Syracuse basketball, football and recruiting. EXPERIENCE Mike McAllister has been covering Syracuse basketball, football and recruiting for more than a decade. Mike's career started with his own free blog as a way to vent following sporting events. Shortly thereafter, a network of basketball sites called Coast 2 Coast Hoops asked him to run their Syracuse site. That site was called Nation of Orange, and Mike quickly established it as a go-to for Syracuse fans. After running Nation of Orange for several months, a position with the Syracuse site on the Scout network became available. After one year as the recruiting expert with Cuse Nation, he was named the publisher. Mike oversaw the transition from Scout to 247Sports, and ran the site on that network for years. Presented with the opportunity to join one of the biggest names in the sports journalism industry, Sports Illustrated, Mike jumped at the chance. All Syracuse was started from scratch by Mike and the Fan Nation team. It has now become a staple for Orange fans of various sports. Mike has broken news on recruiting, Syracuse basketball and football team information and has established himself as the top recruiting inside in the market. He has appeared on local radio shows, television broadcasts, national radio shows and much more.
