Franck Kepnang is the most recent prospect offered a scholarship by Syracuse basketball who decided to commit to the Pac-12’s Oregon.

Roughly two years ago, Pac-12 Conference star Oregon did a number to Syracuse basketball in New York City in the inaugural match-up of these two teams on the court.

On the recruiting trail, the Ducks in recent seasons have managed to pick up several high-quality prospects for whom the Orange had also offered scholarships.

The latest example of a high-school player who chose Oregon, Franck Kepnang, probably amounted to a guy whom the ‘Cuse didn’t have much of a shot of landing anyways, whether he went to the Ducks or another group.
