Syracuse, N.Y. — The Syracuse football program has 27 verbal commitments in the Class of 2025, the second-most in the country trailing only Rutgers.
In recent years, that large number of commitments would mean the Orange was finished with recruiting. Until a rule change in 2023, schools were limited to taking 25 new players in a single year. The limit was changed, in part because schools needed to be able to accept and replace transfers.
