2025 quarterback Rich Belin committed to Syracuse on Thursday evening, he announced in a ceremony

Belin cited the SU coaching staff and the “opportunity to play the best competition” as the reasons why he picked SU in an interview with The Juice Online after his announcement.

Belin was re-offered by the Orange staff under Fran Brown, and officially visited Syracuse earlier in the month. The Bronx (NY) Cardinal Hayes signal caller had a chance to sit down with the SU staff and hear their pitch on the OV.

"(They discussed) my possible impact on the team," Belin previously said. "And expressed a great deal in wanting me to come and be apart of something bigger than myself."

Belin is coming off an outstanding season where he threw for 3,112 yards and 30 touchdowns, and rushed for 1,359 yards and 19 more scores.

He selected Syracuse over finalists Princeton and Delaware.

Belin is the 26th commitment in Syracuse's 2025 class, which is ranked 16th in the country according to Rivals. He is the second quarterback, joining four-star signal caller Luke Carney.
