Avon (Conn.) Old Farms cornerback prospect Rayshon Andrews announced his commitment to Syracuse on Monday.
He returned to the Orange campus this past weekend for his official visit.
“I’ve gone up there three times and this weekend sealed the deal,” Andrews said. He becomes commit No. 23 for first-year head coach Fran Brown and his staff. “I think its the perfect fit to get pushed, not just to develop as a player but as a person too.”
The 6-foot-4, 190-pound Andrews chose Syracuse over Penn State, Boston College and Oregon State among others.
“That new staff they got a lot of energy,” Andrews said. “They all come from very good backgrounds and me being a corner Fran is one of the best corner coaches in the country. They have a lot of energy around that team. They have good relationships. It’s like a family and that pours down to the players too.”
Syracuse is pushing for a Top 25 class under Brown.
“It’s not too far from home which is a good thing too,” Andrews said. “Location for me didn’t really matter but it’s not too far from home. You get a lot of kids from your area and you have a closer connection with them as a team and as a family.”
Andrews picked off two passes as a junior and has 10.8 speed in the 100m dash.
