Carter-Williams makes the call
Syracuse has one of the top recruiting classes in the country in 2010, and now they are off and running in 2011 with their first commitment from Michael Carter-Williams of Hamilton (R.I.) St. Andrews.
Syracuse has been strong with Carter-Williams since the beginning of his recruitment, and a couple visits to the campus convinced him it was the right place for him.

"I feel most comfortable at Syracuse," said Carter-Williams, 6-foot-4, 175-pounds. "I love the facilities and the coaches."
Carter-Williams, who had offers from over ten other schools, also visited Providence, Virginia and Villanova during his recruitment.
A combo guard with length, Carter-Williams also feels that the Syracuse style of play fits him well.
"I'm a long kid, so in the zone that will help," he said. "I'll be able to take up space. I also like to get out and run the court. I'll probably play the one for them."
As a sophomore, Carter-Williams averaged 13 points and six rebounds per game.
