Calling Chance Westry

[NCo’range]

He literally just said it was personal and wasn't going to be shared. So how about leave it be.

Easy, kcsu said he hoped Chance was focusing on his studies.
i agreed with him.

You won’t get any info on him. after a setback there was a personal thing that will remain confidential. More important than basketball

Putting aside the details of the personal situation, do you know if fans should expect him to ever be able to contribute to this program?

I personally think he needs a break from what I know but I know how the program feels about him personally and his basketball skill. He just needs to get on the court somehow

If there’s one thing I think I know about Red, is that he’s going to advocate for whatever is best for the player. Hope Chance does whatever is best for him/his life.

When we landed Chance Westry, JJ, and Donnie Freeman shortly after Red was named head coach, it seemed like a HUGE indicator of Red's recruiting prowess.

Hard to believe that two years later, only JJ contributed out of those three. I don't fault Freeman due to his injury, but he contributed no more than Chris McCullough did. And Chance didn't even score a point.

Incredible, given the caliber of recruit all three were [with two of them being McD AA's].

Basketball, like life itself has a randomness due to health. Chance was very unfortunate. JJ has had injury issues and Donnie lost most of his Freshman year. Syracuse has had a bad run of injuries.. Even when we were really good we lost a couple of key players right before the tournament. Who was it that said the best ability is availability.

Yes, but all of that injury and availability stuff……..that’s coaching.

Another guy who shows up only at the end of the season to bad mouth players…

I appreciate all your takes.
I’m sorry if if I asked a question that some did not like.
I started this post because I truly was at a loss as to what happened to Chance Westry whose story is both sad and interesting. Unfortunately, I live away from the super hub of Syracuse Sports information and this forum has allowed me to keep abreast of my team.
I just want to clarify that my questions were not meant to be, in any way, sarcastic or hurtful.
I honestly just wanted to know what happened since so little has been written or shared anywhere especially here in Raleigh NC where they won’t even cover when SU plays (and stomps) one of their darling teams.
I wish Chance Westry all the best in life.
Go SU!
