Alan Griffin proved pretty darn stellar in his Syracuse basketball debut.
Coming into the 2020-21 season, Syracuse basketball coaches and national pundits alike raved about Alan Griffin, a junior small forward who transferred to the ‘Cuse from Big Ten Conference member Illinois.
On many occasions, we’ve noted how national commentators and journalists have ranked Griffin among the best transfers in the country, as far as pre-season prognostications go.
In his debut for the ‘Cuse on Friday afternoon, a one-point victory over Bryant inside the Carrier Dome, the 6-foot-5 Griffin definitely did not disappoint.
