Jesse Edwards in portal and transfers to WVU

[Franz69]

I think it's clear what's happening. The admin is in on NIL but only up to a point. SU lacks the full school sport and needed amount of big donors to compete with the big boys. It's why 2 SU fball starters left this year and Jessie appears to be following. The Weitsman saga doesn't exactly help either.

If the admin is in on NIL but only up to a point, then the admin is not really in on NIL.

Jesse transferring would be an insane twist

I believe Scott11 was referring to Dickinson getting more $ at another school, not Jesse. Correct me if I’m wrong.

 

[Cusefan0307]

Nobody is against NIL.

Sure, but everyone’s definition is different and I’ve seen yours.

 

[hoopsupstate]

Just a week ago we had the team picture with the team watching the championship game over dinner.

 

[Orangefan1]

A10 players are signing six figure deals

We seem so far behind with NIL idk why it feels that way…at least women’s lacrosse is solid there is some hope

 

[Sherman20]

I know some of you are speculating about who my source is, and that's totally fine. All good. I can't say one way or another. But regarding Jesse and NIL, stay tuned on that.

This is some cryptic and confusing information.

 

[JeremyCuse]

They’ve been excelling or are excelling in the present NIL world. It doesn’t matter what they did in the late 2000s

How are they excelling? Half of those schools you listed didn't even make the NCAA tournament this year and St Mary's hasn't made it out of the 1st weekend of the tourney in forever. You also failed to note that FAU already lost one of their best players to Auburn and a massive NIL deal.

Even if he was, the other tweet/poster also tweeted about

 

[Cusefan69]

One thing I will say, Mike Waters hasn't reported anything has he? I know he was away for awhile but I imagine he is back. Donna hasn't reported anything that I know of? Devo said Jesse was coming back has he said he was wrong? So far, we have one source. Not saying he is wrong. But no one else has reported this as of yet.

This ^^^. People going off the deep end here. Folks need to see what happens. There's nothing to see yet. Edward's is probably chilling with his guys playing CoD thinking about next year and fans on this board are in a SVB panic. Have a drink folks.

 

[IthacaMatt]

If it's income then it should be an issue for many other P6 programs too...

It is. There are hundreds and hundreds of kids in the portal for the major (revenue) sports.

We’re Syracuse bball fans. It doesn’t go our way. Well, not lately

 

[Sherman20]

We couldn’t come up with enough money for Jesse. We aren’t going to do it with Dickinson.

it was so nice having some momentum for a few weeks.

Are you saying you know this for a fact? Or is this speculation?

 

[Cuse181]

Really? I’d take Michigan’s team the last 5yrs and the next 5 over ours.

Literally has nothing to do with the conversation at hand…

This could only apply to being a more lucrative summer trip.

 

[dasher]

We are pretty darn close. Other than G Town, who has taken a plunge like this?

In the last 10 years we were in the top 10 in tournament wins. That isn't a laughingstock. We have had one losing season in the last 50 years. And we lost our starting center for that to happen. Come on. Words have meanings.

 

[Sherman20]

I said Kent was leery of stretching the rules for NIL a couple of months ago and was scolded for it here. I still believe that to be the case.

So you’ve heard this?

 

[Jake]

So I would ask Neil the following question:

Are you hearing Jesse isn’t planning on returning, or is definitively not returning.

Those are two completely different statements.

 

[Cuse_NYC]

Idn what’s so hard for you to comprehend. Them losing Dickinson is not like us losing Jesse. They have loads of other talent. We do not.

 

[dasher]

I believe Scott11 was referring to Dickinson getting more $ at another school, not Jesse. Correct me if I’m wrong.

I think they are saying both to be honest.

 

[Cuse_NYC]

In the last 10 years we were in the top 10 in tournament wins. That isn't a laughingstock. We have had one losing season in the last 50 years. And we lost our starting center for that to happen. Come on. Words have meanings.

We snuck in and made a few runs. We went from pretty much a blue blood to a team who finished under .500 two seasons ago.

How are they excelling? They are making the tournament, they are winning games, and most have been ranked at some point in the last two years. They are all seeing success, whether it be this year or last without massive NIL donors. Their historic success is irrelevant because the claim is that programs without massive NIL can’t compete today, yet they are because of good and agile coaching

 

[hoopsupstate]

If Jesse leaves for another school it’s a really bad look for Red. Fair or not, that really hurts him and this staff.

So I would ask Neil the following question:

That is a great point. Let's say someone says I don't think Jesse is planning on coming back. I heard he is going to ABC school for more NIL money. Meanwhile, after telling our coaches that ( if this is the case) they are working to make things right for Jesse to stay here. The first statement would be true and yet not end up being the case.

I think he said Jesse would not be returning to SU for his fifth season.
