In a fine display of footballing carousel, Ohio State's glittering quarterback, Kyle McCord, waved goodbye to the Buckeyes as he set sail for a new adventure with the Syracuse crew. A starter for every game this season, McCord lit up the field with his scorching performance of 3,170 yards, 24 touchdowns and meager six interceptions during his freshman campaign as the Buckeye's leading man. His departure sends ripples across the college football landscape as he leaves behind a legacy intertwined with All-America receiver Marvin Harrison Jr., whom he shared not just the resplendent Ohio State field with, but also high school triumphs back in Philadelphia.
Syracuse, under the helm of their new coaching maestro Fran Brown, has been in hot pursuit of promising talents to adorn their roster. The shrewd acquisition of McCord adds to an already impressive catch that comprises of Georgia's erstwhile dynamic duo, receivers Jackson Meeks and Zeed Haynes. Brown, a Jersey boy at heart, has been moulded by his experiences at Temple and Rutgers, before his two-season spectacle at Georgia.
