One final year for the West Coast senior
It’s time to start preparing for the 2025 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 2 of the Fran Brown Era.
Next up is…
Name: Tommy Porter
Position: Defensive Back
Year: Redshirt Senior
Height: 5’11”
Weight: 196 lbs.
Hometown: Pasadena, California
High School: Flintridge Prep
2024 stats: Appeared in the Holiday Bowl against Washington State, recording no statistics.
2025 projections: Porter has only played in five games over three seasons with the Orange, so his minutes will most likely be sparse. He did play four games as a reserve defensive back in 2023 and could fill in again if the injury bug hits the starters.
How’d he get here?: Chose to walk-on to the Orange.
What’d recruiting sites say?: No ratings
Winners Get Washed: Juniper Porter Body Wash — Pretty expensive for just 16 ounces, but hey, that’s the quality you get with the Porter name.
