Syracuse's DL Portal Activity Shows Staff's Faith in Young Linemen

Mike, is it reasonable to conclude from this that they don’t have the same confidence in their young OLs? Why would they have a different strategy and keep offering more OLs, but not DLs? I would be surprised if some of the young OLs did not also have good potential and development upside. In any event, in keeping with the strategy of developing more healthy competition at every position, I would feel more comfortable with a strong DL choice or two from the transfer portal.

I think they’d just like a tackle to compete with Vettorello and that can provide depth. I don’t envision them bringing in multiple OLs. But at the same time, if you have an opportunity to improve a position, you do it. That’s why Verse was pursued.
