SYRACUSE, N.Y. -- Syracuse coach Dino Babers is the first to admit that it wasnt exactly love at first sight with wideout Amba Etta-Tawo.When I was at Bowling Green last year, we played Maryland; I didnt really remember Amba in the game, said Babers, hired by Syracuse in December to replace Scott Shafer.Now its difficult not to notice the elusive Etta-Tawo, who apparently liked what he saw in Babers up-tempo style of offense during Bowling Greens 48-27 win over the Terps in 2015 and transferred to Syracuse for his final year of eligibility.Three games into the season, Etta-Tawo is thriving in the Oranges new offense. He leads the Atlantic Coast Conference and ranks third nationally in receiving yards per game (145.3), and his 9.3 receptions per game are tied for fourth in the Football Bowl Subdivision.I think Ive adjusted pretty well (to Babers system), but theres always room for improvement, said Etta-Tawo, whose parents are Nigerian. Just take it step by step, and at the end of the day everything will work out.Etta-Tawo has 28 catches for 436 yards -- an average of 15.6 yards per catch -- and three touchdowns. That receiving yardage total is the most ever for a Syracuse player in the first three games of a season. No surprise that his name was added this week to the national watch list for the Biletnikoff Award , given annually to the best receiver in the nation.Amba has been outstanding. Hes been a pleasant surprise, Babers said. Obviously, we had no idea hed be able to do the things that hes done so far, but it doesnt surprise me with the work ethic that he put in when he started here, coming in the summer, working with (quarterback) Eric Dungey, the way he goes about his work in practice.Etta-Tawos first game with the Orange is one hell likely remember forever. He caught 12 passes for 210 yards in a 33-7 victory over Football Championship Subdivision foe Colgate. Against then-No. 13 Louisville in Week 2, he had eight catches for 103 yards and two scores, one a 47-yarder, in a lopsided home loss to the rising Cardinals. He followed that with eight receptions for 123 yards in a loss against South Florida on Saturday in the Carrier Dome.Thats an impressive improvement from his time at Maryland, where Etta-Tawo had 61 catches for 938 yards and scored three times.I knew what I could do, said Etta-Tawo, who led Maryland with five catches for 49 yards in that game against Babers and Bowling Green last season. Its just learning what the coaches are preaching. Theyve done a great job teaching me new techniques and things to up my game a little bit.If youre on the same page as the quarterback, youre going to make it work.Syracuse (1-2) travels on Saturday to UConn (2-1), which could use a threat like the speedy, 6-foot-2, 202-pound Etta-Tawo. The Huskies have just 580 yards passing as a team, ranking last in the American Athletic Conference.---AP college football website: www.collegefootball.ap.org---Follow Kekis on Twitter: www.twitter.com/Greek1947 Cheap Air Max 90 White .

Jordan Lewis is not angry with Hawthorn, but his manager concedes there is a chance the four-time premiership star could still play for Melbourne next year.Lewis, 30, was believed to be taken aback by a post-season conversation with Alastair Clarkson where the coach urged him to consider his playing future beyond next season - the last year of his current contract with the club.However, after news of Sam Mitchells shock trade to West Coast emerged last week, the club moved to clarify that Lewis was a contracted and required player.But his manager, Liam Pickering, had already made an approach to the Demons by then.Theres no issues ... hes not filthy, hes not angry, Pickering told SEN on Saturday.(He) is a professional, hes the vice-captain of the club, finished second in the best-and-fairest last week, whatever happens will happen.Hes a Hawthorn player at the moment, so theres a good chance that hell be a Hawthorn player because hes contracted to Hawthorn.ddddddddddddI need to keep working through it with Jordan and well see where it goes.Theres no timeline.Hawthorn have been busy in this years AFL trade and free agency periods.They have signed unrestricted free agent key forward Ty Vickery from Richmond, traded in Tom Mitchell from Sydney and shipped former skipper Sam Mitchell off to the Eagles.They also engineered a swap of draft picks with St Kilda that left them with the Saints first-round pick this year - the 10th selection overall.Gold Coast star Jaeger OMeara remains a key trade target and Lewis may yet end up in Melbourne colours next season as the club seeks to clear salary cap space.Well wait and see how it all unfolds, Pickering said.But Im having good dialogue with Melbourne and also the Hawks.
