Dino Babers has added three recruits in the last five days.

2020 defensive back Chase Atkinson committed to Syracuse on Wednesday, according to his Twitter page.

The rising senior at Blythewood (South Carolina) high school was not ranked by 247sports.com and didn’t receive an offer from SU until last weekend’s camp. The 5-foot-11, 180-pound safety’s only other offer was from Coastal Carolina.



He’s now the third player to commit to Syracuse in five days, joining Canadian safety Ben Labrosse and tight end Steven Mahar. The SU 2020 class now holds 14 pledges. 

With senior Evan Foster nearing the end of his SU career, Atkinson could provide much needed secondary depth come 2020.
