Syracuse Football: Excitement builds as a 4-star CB, currently with Michigan, plans an official visit to SU in June.
Four-star cornerback/athlete Dawayne Galloway Jr., hailing from Ohio and considered a consensus top-200 national prospect in the 2025 class, is preparing for an official visit to Syracuse football next month.
Despite receiving considerable attention from multiple prestigious programs, the 6-foot, 175-pound Galloway seems particularly intrigued by the Orange. However, there’s notable analyst chatter linking him to a formidable Big Ten Conference powerhouse.
As of the latest reports, Michigan, the reigning College Football Playoff national champion, has attracted at least three analyst predictions for Galloway’s recruitment, as noted by both the 247Sports website and Rivals.com.

While Michigan holds the top spot in Galloway’s recruitment at present, according to On3’s recruiting prediction model, it’s important to note that decisions in recruiting can be fluid. Galloway has upcoming official visits, including one slated for Syracuse during the weekend of June 14 to June 16.
Syracuse football faces formidable competition in their pursuit of Galloway, who has received nearly 30 offers from high-major programs throughout his recruitment process. The Orange, under the leadership of head coach Fran Brown, extended a scholarship offer to Galloway on December 20 of the previous year.
