Recruiting

Verbal commit Dungey becomes only quarterback in Syracuse’s Class of 2015

Lakeridge (Oregon) High School quarterback Eric Dungey verbally committed to Syracuse’s recruiting Class of 2015, he announced via his Twitter account Sunday night.

Dungey, a three-star commit according to Scout.com, is the only quarterback in the Orange’s incoming class.

The 6-foot-4, 190-pound signal-caller also had offers from Yale, Wyoming, UNLV, Northern Colorado, and more, according to his Scout profile, which also said Dungey made his official visit on Tuesday. Scout ranks Dungey as the 95th best out of all 2015 quarterbacks.

On Nov. 15, a post by Lakeridge High School’s Twitter account said Dungey was offered a scholarship by Tim Lester, Syracuse’s offensive coordinator and quarterbacks coach, during warm-ups before a second-round playoff game.

Dungey could possibly be one of six scholarship quarterbacks the Orange carries next year, if junior Terrel Hunt, sophomores Mitch Kimble and Austin Wilson and freshman AJ Long all return and Class of 2014 signee Alin Edouard enrolls in January, like SU head coach Scott Shafer has said he will.
