An opportunity for the writers to brag a bit
As we get to the end of 2024, we asked the TNIAAM staff to share their favorite Syracuse Orange stories of the year. So, in no particular order let’s get to the list:
Christian
A look at the Syracuse offensive coordinator Jeff Nixon and the NFL offense he brought to the Cuse.
Carson
A look at Orange cornerback Clarence Lewis and his artwork
Coverage of one of the proposed CFB super league options which were floated this year.
Dom
Right before Felisha Legette-Jack’s comment about the Dome attendance for her team, Dom dug into the numbers.
A look at 100 games between Syracuse and the no-good, stinky Georgetown Hoyas
Finn
Last spring Finn took an in-depth look at injuries in women’s lacrosse and how Syracuse was trying to be more proactive in their prevention. We called the series “From Sidelined to Strong” and you can click to get to part one, two and three.
James
Profiles of two of Syracuse’s 2024 recruits from the highly regarded Donnie Freeman to the story behind the recruitment of Petar Majstorovic. He also profiled the basketball nutrition program under Autry as well as Quadir Copeland’s behind the scenes antics from Syracuse’s upset over No. 7 North Carolina.
John
Syracuse men’s lacrosse and the different levels of being ‘back’
A look at last year’s Syracuse women’s lacrosse team and The final run for a special group
Max
A look at the relationship between Fadil Diggs and Elijah Robinson and a profile of freshman running back Yasin Willis
Mike
We still talk scheduling and Mike had some suggestions for potential fixes for Syracuse football’s non-conference scheduling issues.
Would it make sense to see UConn in the ACC if Florida State leaves?
Sam
An in-depth look at transfer Jyare Davis and his fit with the Orange, then once the season got started Sam looked at the issues with the Orange’s transition defense in the first two games
Steve
Well looks like Steve was spot on with this post-Spring piece on the different feeling around Syracuse football.
Kevin
Syracuse MBB turned a Sweet 16 appearance into a free fall that fans believe has bottomed out. Maybe it’s time the team brought in motivational speaker Jim Boeheim to share some words of encouragement,
Hope you had some pieces you enjoyed this year and we can all laugh at our predictions that Syracuse football would be a run-heavy offense or that there was no way the Orange could win in Raleigh or against Miami. Let’s see what 2025 has in store for Syracuse sports.
