Willie Goodacre Puts Syracuse in Top 6, Schedules Official Visit /

In this story:

Syracuse Orange

Class of 2024 Denton (TX) Guyer offensive lineman Willie Goodacre released his top six on Friday and Syracuse made the cut. In addition to the Orange, Arizona State, Cal, Houston, Kansas and Tulane comprised Goodacre's top schools. Syracuse extended its offer in January.

"I think it's a great school," Goodacre said. "The mob mentality of the program is something I highly respect and coach Farmer is definitely someone who I'm able to buy into."

Farmer is the lead recruiter for Goodacre and the two have developed a strong relationship over the last several months. So much so that not only did Syracuse make Goodacre's top six, but the Orange has secured an official visit for the weekend of June 16th.

"I'm looking to see the culture of the city," Goodacre said. "And a place I can see myself at and around for more than four years."

Goodacre is one of the top offensive linemen in the state of Texas. He is listed at 6-5, 310 pounds. While he plays tackle in high school, he has the skill set to play inside at the next level as well. Beyond his top six, Goodacre also reported offers from BYU, Nebraska, Minnesota, Michigan State, SMU, Missouri and others. He is rated a three star prospect by all of the major recruiting services.

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.
