Here's the second part of a series looking at three players from each team who will burst onto the scene in the Big East. It could be an incoming or redshirt freshman, a transfer or just someone stepping into a new role.

Let's turn to Syracuse:

Justin Pugh, OT: Pugh redshirted last year but ended the spring listed as the starter at the all-important position of left tackle. The 6-foot-5, 287-pounder from Pennsylvania played in the prestigious Big 33 high school all-star game. He could be tasked with protecting the blind side of new starting quarterback Ryan Nassib.

Aaron Weaver, WR: Weaver transferred to the Orange after Hofstra shut down its football program right before he was about to enter his senior year. Weaver led the team with 63 catches for 797 yards last year, and while he will be playing at a much higher level, the 6-foot-2, 220-pounder can at the very least add depth to a young receiving corps.

Olando Fisher, S: Fisher came over from Nassau Community College and enrolled in January so he could go through spring practice. He's listed as a backup strong safety now, but the 5-foot-11, 200-pounder could see some time at linebacker and figures to play a lot on special teams as well.

More fresh faces.
