Syracuse asks a lot of its tight ends, namely blocking on the line of scrimmage, motioning as an H-back, splitting out wide as a receiver and being used as a fullback.
"Aaron is the guy of the three coming into my position that can do all of those very well," tight ends coach Reno Ferri said.
"The day Aaron gets here we'll look at him as an in-line tight end and a guy that will play as an H-back off the ball."
Coley, the son of Reynolds and a standout this past fall at Fayetteville-Manlius, could play running back or defensive back.
