The Syracuse Orange men’s basketball program has a lot of pressure on it to bring in a strong recruiting class for 2022. And at least for now, it seems like Jim Boeheim and his staff are putting together a pretty impressive group — especially after Saturday’s news that four-star Justin Taylor would commit to the Orange.
Taylor is a 6-foot-6, 200-pound wing out of Charlottesville, Va. and currently playing at St. Anne’s-Belfield School. Syracuse beat out hometown Virginia, plus Virginia Tech, North Carolina and Indiana for his services — a really good sign that we’ve got a talented player coming aboard.
