SYRACUSE, N.Y. – Syracuse University, the athletics department and the Orange football program lost a legend and a friend on Jan. 1, 2021 with the passing of Floyd Little.
The 78-year-old Little was born in July 1942 in New Haven, Conn. He is survived by his wife, DeBorah, who was also part of the fabric of the Syracuse University Athletics family and Syracuse community, son, Marc, daughters, Christy and Kyra, and several grandchildren.
"Floyd Little is a Syracuse treasure," said Syracuse University Director of Athletics John Wildhack '80. "The legacy that he leaves here is so much more than just one who wore #44, was an All-American, was in the College Football Hall of Fame and the Pro Football Hall of Fame.
