Highlights:

Player Breakdown: One of the stronger recruits in this SU class, Hendrix hails from our nation’s capital and was top dog in high school. He’s a bigger receiver that was in the top 100 in receiving his senior season.

Syracuse lost some big time receivers in Steve Ishmael and Ervin Phillips this year, so the slack has got to be picked up somewhere. Hopefully Devin Butler and Jamal Custis can hold down the fort, but its nice to have a solid group of young guys coming up.
