Syracuse football recruiting: Track the class of 2018

Isabelle Marmur | Contributing Photographer

On Feb. 1, 2017, Babers welcomed 24 new members in his first recruiting class. Now, he's working on building his second.

National Signing Day is only a few months away and it’s not too early to take a look at head coach Dino Babers’ 2018 class. Included are each of the players’ star rankings, notable offers and commitment dates according to 247Sports.com’s composite rankings and Scout.com. Syracuse’s Class of 2018 kicked off a week after National Signing Day 2017, when tight end Gabe Horan committed. On April 18, Babers landed his first four-star recruit in the class: center Tyrone Sampson Jr., who would later decommit on Dec. 20. After a 4-8 season for the second-straight year, Babers will want to build a strong class and fill important roster holes, like the one at linebacker.
