Chance Westry Transferring to Syracuse

Matt Park: Out for the time being.

Feel bad for Westry. Really liked him as a HS prospect, and was excited that he transferred in.

Injuries, and other off-court factors, seem like they'll prevent him from ever coming close to actualizing his potential.

Wouldn't remotely be surprised to see him transfer out after this season.

Has to go. I don't know what NIL he's getting, but it has to stop and be re-allocated.

Was half surprised he came back this year, but roster selection and management doesn't seem to be one of our strong suits.

What could have been.

 

[721Comstock]

What could have been.

Apparently, nothing.

Because he just cannot get and stay healthy.

The greatest ability is - availability.
And he has zero.

it's Not Red's Fault™

Exactly. I'm not even sure what transfer options he would have. Feel horrible for him, but doesn't seem like there would be a huge demand for someone who is never healthy, even in low D-1

I mean... I'd wonder why I wasn't given more of a shot.

I am also not playing in tonight’s game just FYI.

I was going to delete this.

But then I decided to let everyone know who you are.

go right ahead!

Feel terrible for him. I wonder if he can explore his options in basketball the rest of his time at Cuse. Coaching, training, nutrition, agents, NIL.

Plenty of careers in hoops if you can't play.

I was going to comment that there has to be more going on with Westry than physical injuries. If he’s dealing with any kind of mental health issue, I truly hope he’s getting the professional help he needs and deserves, and that he gets unconditional support from ALL Cuse fans during this time. While there are certainly many benefits to being a D1 high major basketball player (specifically financial), there also comes with it a great deal of pressure that can be tough for anyone to deal with, let alone a young college kid.

Hope he’s able to resolve his troubles, whether on or off the court. Some times people just need a break or a reset.

Stop. He has continuing knee issues and because of limitations in his quickness he has no confidence. Can’t beat his defender - as was obvious in the few minutes he had in a couple of games.

That’s an extreme assumption without any evidence. Shameful post. By all accounts Chance is a good kid that’s just can’t overcome significant injuries. It’s extremely unfortunate but it happens.

He will go down as the missing man in SU basketball lore.

Alongside Winfred Walton and Mike Jones.

Poor kid. He’s a good kid that’s worked hard to get back. Maybe misremembering but didn’t his mom or someone close to him die that shook him pretty good?

I think his Mom died a couple years ago
