Syracuse football recruiting: 2019 safety Cornelius Nunn sets decision for July 2

The Syracuse Orange football program is still looking for upgrades on defense, especially until we see exactly what the current players on the roster can do in year three of the Tampa-2 scheme. That means recruiting defensive backs, in particular. And Dino Babers’s staff may be in the process of making a key addition there.

On Tuesday, 2019 athlete/safety Cornelius Nunn listed out his top eight schools, and included a commitment date of July 2.

Syracuse made the list along with fellow ACC programs Pitt and Miami, plus Kentucky, Indiana, Tennessee, Nebraska and Auburn. According to 247Sports, Nunn was visited by Orange safeties coach Nick Monroe down in Miami (where he lives) last week.
