Recruitment Recap: Ta'Ron Haile committed to Syracuse in June. His former coach, Dennis Thomas, is in the recruiting department with the Orange and Nunzio Campanile has a strong relationship with him as well. Haile was as solid as it gets until Syracuse fired Dino Babers, putting everything up in the air. However, he quickly connected with new Orange head coach Fran Brown and scheduled an official visit. That visit solidified the fact that Syracuse was still the right fit even with the coaching change. 

Evaluation: Speed, speed and more speed. Haile is a track star who shows that speed on the football field. He was a big time deep ball threat in high school, but is coming to Syracuse as a defensive back. With his speed, athleticism and ball skills, he has the potential to be playmaker in the secondary for the Orange. His experience as a wideout should help him in coverage at the next level. Getting stronger in order to help in run support as well as block shedding will be key once he arrives.

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. Mr. McAllister has a Bachelor of Science Degree in Accounting and Information Management from Roberts Wesleyan College.
