Syracuse basketball is out of the running for 2024 four-star point guard Mikey Lewis.
Recent media reports, including one from On3 national analyst Joe Tipton, stated that the 6-foot-3 Lewis is down to six finalists, and they are Illinois, 2022 national champion Kansas, LSU, Ole Miss, 2023 NCAA Tournament runner-up San Diego State and St. Mary’s.
While I don’t have any inside intel on Lewis’ recruitment, I was a little surprised that the Orange didn’t make his top six. The ‘Cuse coaching staff offered him a scholarship in late April, and Lewis said on several occasions this spring and summer that he was eyeing a potential official visit to the Hill at some point.
