Recruitment Recap: Ducharme is one of the best shooters in the 2023 class. Throughout the recruiting cycle, he became one of the more intriguing prospects and was coveted by several high major programs. Ducharme earned offers from Connecticut, Creighton, DePaul, Iowa, Miami, Northwestern, Penn State, Providence, Stanford, Syracuse, Virginia Tech and Xavier. As the summer hit, Ducharme took three official visits in June. He visited Syracuse on the 14th, Penn State on the 20th and Xavier on the 29th.

"I was able to workout with the players," Ducharme said of his Syracuse visit. "I did that both days. I had meetings with academic advisors. I looked at the Faulk school, that was pretty interesting. They have an NIL class that they just started, so I like that. Had meetings with coach. We went to coach Boeheim's house for a barbecue with the pool and lawn games and the players. That was fun."

Following his visits to all three schools, Ducharme weighed his options over the next two months. Now he is ready to make his decision.

Prediction: Xavier

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.
