McAllister: Syracuse currently ‘favorite’ to land Quade Green, Oahae Brissett

Scout.com’s Mike McAllister calls in to chat about the 2017 basketball recruiting class Wes Cheng on The Juice on the Cuse Podcast hosted by SNY.tv. The Juice Online Editor in Chief Brad Bierman calls in after to talk about Syracuse’s win over Boston College.

Here are the highlights from the show:

Wes Cheng: Is Syracuse the favorite to land Quade Green?

Mike McAllister: I think they are. I consider them the favorite for Quade at this point. He’s taken a couple of official visits including Kentucky, which I think is the only school that could prohibit Quade from coming to Syracuse at this point. He took his official visit to Syracuse over this past weekend to check out Orange Madness and got to check that out and a weekend with the Syracuse coaches and players. I think everything seems to be pointing in a positive direction from a Syracuse standpoint.

WC: Should Syracuse fans be worried that SU doesn’t have a 2017 commit yet?

MM: It’s rare that you get this deep into a recruiting cycle and Syracuse doesn’t have a commitment at this point. I understand why Syracuse fans have some concerns. What happens if they miss on Quade Green? What happens if they miss on Quade Green, Oshae Brissett and Billy Preston? Then what do you do? Syracuse basketball will be just fine. They always land elite prospects. They continue to land elite prospects. I wouldn’t be concerned just yet.
