​It’s time to start preparing for the 2026 Syracuse Orange football season. We’re going through the roster to take a look at each Syracuse player as we get to know a lot of new faces for Year 3 of the Fran Brown Era.Up next is…AdvertisementAdvertisementAdvertisementName: Rich BelinPosition: QuarterbackYear: Redshirt freshmanHeight: 6’0”Weight: 195 lbs.Hometown: Harlem, NYHigh School/Previous College: Cardinal Hayes High School2025 stats: N/A (redshirted entire season)2026 projections: Sort of similar to 2025, Belin faces a somewhat uphill battle on the depth chart with Steve Angeli back and coach Fran Brown adding Amari Odom, Malachi Nelson, and Danny Lauter via the portal. At best, I can see Belin being third in the lineup, but Angeli and Odom are ahead of him as things currently stand. That said, I’m still high on his outlook. The high school tape shows he can make plays, throw the ball downfield, and move in the pocket. He could very well be a candidate to start in 2027, as wild as that sounds.AdvertisementAdvertisementAdvertisementHow’d he get here?: Committed to the Orange in June 2024 over offers from Buffalo, Temple, Army, Navy, UConn, Yale, and a handful of other schools.What’d recruiting sites say?: Three stars on 247Sports, ESPN, and On3Social Media:X: @richglory_2Instagram: @richglory2Interesting nugget o’interest: Plenty of notable names that have walked the halls of Cardinal Hayes High School, including Martin Scorsese, Willie Colon, Ian Jackson, and George Carlin (did not graduate).Let’s get a look at ya: Hudl high school tape:View Link
