Jacksonville (Fla.) Zarephath Academy 2028 offensive tackle Omari Lawson announced his commitment to Syracuse head coach Fran Brown and the Orange on Friday evening.

He is commit No. 1 for the ACC program in the sophomore class.

“Coach Fran, he a great coach, a great guy, and a great mentor,” Lawson told On3. “And I when I recently went on my visit it felt like home. The hospitality and the atmosphere was amazing.”

Syracuse was first to offer the 6-foot-6, 260-pound Lawson back in January. He visited for the recent game against Pittsburgh.

Lawson chose Syracuse over an early offer from Miami.
