Chance Westry Transferring to Syracuse

[kcsu]

I'm over it. I cant deal with another season of cloak and dagger.

Lets just hope he gets better. If being on the team is helping him then he should stay on the team. Period. His well being is all that matters.

But they do matter and it's certainly not a "distraction".

Sports is what keeps many young people engaged with their academics. Sports provides them opportunities to play on club, school and collegiate teams. Sports provides an opportunity to travel, experience new cultures, to mature, to learn, to create lifelong friendships, and to develop both teamwork and leadership skills.

I'm not trying to offend, but I find that kind of "sports don't matter" comment to be trite. Yeah, we know breathing is more important that playing basketball. That's not a valuable insight.

But if the goal of playing basketball again is what's keeping Chance motivated to overcome whatever he's dealing with right now, then I think sports is actually damn important.

Let it go. You take my comments too literally. Smoke one. Please.

Sports matter a lot more to the players and the coaches than to us.

Exactly. Who gives a . Everything happens as it’s supposed to.

Does he get credit for hiring Straughn?

Yes or we don't get Donnie or probably White.

Existing revenue estimates for the global sports industry range from $471 billion to $1.4 trillion.
(this is surely a wide range)

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.

So you disagree with someone thats saying maybe mental health could be the issue here and then say they are wrong by describing a mental health issue. And people actually liked that, what a joke.
So what if the physical caused the mental...you say he is suffering from having no confidence. Id equate that to a mental issue. Maybe he could still provide something positive if he had that confidence.
Regardless, our problems are much deeper than Chance.
I wish Chance the best in his future, I hope he takes advantage of his scholarship and we should honor it until he gets his degree.

Don't think Red had much to do with landing Freeman, however if he doesn't hire Brenden Straughn, Freeman would have gone elsewhere.

Red and Straughn led the charge. Straughn had the AAU connection to Donnie but Red has a great reputation in DMV recruiting and he was very much involved.

I hope we get to see Chance play and excel at some point this season. Wishing him the best

Chance is probably one year away from a degree. Assuming he doesn't transfer down or something, they absolutely should keep him on the roster so he can finish his degree -- he's going to need it. He should crank out credits and maybe he can even get a masters somewhere if he's able to play at all. But hopefully he doesn't continue to draw a NIL salary because we're short on money.

Do you mean more than the ten minutes we saw him play over a three game stretch in December. Unfortunately, I would be surprised if he suited up again (this season).

Did anyone see Chance Westry during the BC game?
I kept searching and did not see him.

He did not travel with the team this time.

He did not travel with the team this time.

I feel bad for him. I hope he is able to recover from whatever he is dealing with.

At this point I have a hard time believing that we’ll ever see him contribute at SU
