Want to know how good Syracuse University basketball is this season? The Orange put forth one of their worst efforts of the season against Big East conference rival Louisville, yet still found a way to beat the eighteenth-ranked Cardinals at KFC Yum! Center. That means we can expect to see more of this Jordan Melo M8 they’ve been wearing throughout March as Jim Boeheim continues to climb further into the rarefied air of the truly elite coaches in college roundball history. Will Fab Melo, Scoop Jardine and the Orange make it through March Madness to win another National Championship? Stick with Sneaker News to see which kicks they’re wearing along the way, and get ready for the Melo M8 Syracuse edition to arrive at Jordan Brand retailers next month. via Sneakergo

While Syracuse University isn’t a Jordan Brand outfitted school, the school has turned a harmless blind eye to its players rocking Air Jordans on court. In addition to all the AJ Retro heat that we’ve seen on the Carrier Dome court, Syracuse has created a tradition of rocking Jordan Melos as well, as a homage to Carmelo Anthony’s Championship-winning legacy with the school. We can expect the Future Sole Melo M8 on their feet sometime in the future, but you can definitely count on the White/Midnight Navy-Orange Blaze to appear even sooner; watch for these to hit store in March, when NCAA basketball intensity becomes red-hot, and let us know what you think of these Orange-inspired Melos in the comments section below.

It appears that the New York Knicks are back on track after a rough start, winning three straight against Eastern Conference foes. While Carmelo is one of the most prolific scorers in the game, the Knicks seem to perform a bit better when he shares the ball a bit more – two of their five wins came without Melo being the leading bucket-maker. However, for the Knicks the truly succeed at the highest level, Carmelo Anthony needs to be at the top of his game, and he’s certainly doing so in the Jordan Melo M8, which features Flywire, visible Zoom Air cushioning, and a lock-down inner bootie. We showed you the Syracuse colorway a few times before, but we’ve got additional angles as well as a release point for these (March 2012, just in time for Syracuse’s run at the National Title). Check out the gallery below and let us know what you think of this latest Jordan Melo M8 colorway. via hk-kicks.
