In this story:

Syracuse football held its seven on seven camp on Saturday. One of the top individual players who participated was four star Camden (NJ) Eastside defensive back Willy Love. Love was strong all day, catching touchdown passes and locking down opposing receivers. 

After the camp was over, Love spoke with new safeties coach Darrell Perkins. 

"He talked about how he recruits his DBs and why Syracuse has really been quiet ever since the coaching changes," Love said. "It's because he doesn't recruit DBs to play in the secondary unless they have met before or have a bond."

The 6-2, 200 pound defensive back says he hopes this is the start of a strong relationship between the two. 

"I'm glad I got to meet coach Perkins and get a vibe from him," Love said. "He was impressed by my ability to play corner, outside linebacker and cover the way I do and change directions. My interest in Cuse is always high but during the process I se it as it's who is interested in you as well. I hope Syracuse and coach Perkins become major contenders in this process." 

With the start of a new relationship in hand, Love says he is currently taking his time with his recruiting process. 

"This upcoming season I'll make a decision," Love said. "I feel as though for my family and me, we just want to enjoy this process a little more because I didn't really get the experience other recruits did due to my injury. But that's okay because everybody's recruiting process is difference."

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.
