Syracuse lacrosse season is winding down, the weather's getting a little warmer
0:09
which means all the eyes are on Fran Brown and Syracuse football

Summer camp is right around the corner and there's a lot of questions about this team
0:18
that I think we need to dive into. The first one that I definitely think is interesting is who's going to emerge
0:23
as the wide receiver one for this program? You know, you have Braylon Kyle McCord this season, you know
0:29
the Ohio straight transfer, threw for 3,000 yards last year, but the problem is he had Marvin Harrison Jr. to rely on
0:36
And in this offense, he's going to have a lot of variety and different guys that he can choose from
0:41
And you know, I think summer camp is the perfect time for one of these guys to emerge
0:45
and become that safety blanket for McCord. You're not going to have Aranda Gadsden just yet
0:50
He's coming off of that Lisfranc injury. He'll be back for the fall
0:54
There's a lot of options that he can pick from. Georgia transfers Jackson Meeks, Zied Haynes, Red Cert junior Trevor Pena
1:01
There's just a lot of options, and I'm very intrigued to see who comes out as the number one option
1:06
And then another thing we could look at is how are the veterans of this program, guys like Marlo Wax and LaQuinn Allen, going to adjust to the new schemes
1:13
brought in by the new coordinators under Brown? Jeff Nixon on the offense is a big fan of the run
1:18
which if you're LaQuinn Allen, you've got to love that. I think that's going to be really good for him to get some more touches on the ground
1:25
and get those stats up. And then looking on the defensive side of the ball, Elijah Robinson doing more four-down lineman strategy
1:32
It gives more opportunities for Marlo Wax to make plays on the ball. So it's going to be interesting to see how those guys adjust
1:38
from their already really good seasons under Dino Babers and pushing towards a more aggressive play style
1:44
You know, those are my thoughts. Let me know what you guys think, and go Orange
