Steve Ishmael

Ishmael (6-2, 202) has 66 career catches, 985 yards and 10 TDs, yet he could top those numbers this year alone. Ishmael has quietly been quite good the last two years, producing well above the average for a player of his age in an offense as mediocre as Syracuse's. He should finally get to produce with volume instead of just efficiency. The arrival of coach Dino Babers from Bowling Green will assure max-tempo for Ishmael, who also has a promising QB in Eric Dungey. Don't expect Ishmael to be Roger Lewis from last year, but a breakout season is clearly ahead.
