We know Cole wants to be a sportscaster down the road.  That is one of the reasons Syracuse was a finalist when he was in HS and a big reason he transferred here late.

Coming back for another season gives him more chances to take Newhouse courses in his chosen field.

He wasn’t happy with his role at Villanova.  Wanted more freedom on offense.  And more playing time.

JB promised him he would get those things and he delivered.  Cole always thought he was capable of taking over games and scoring 30 plus points and at Syracuse, he had the freedom to make it happen.

It has to be tempting to think, if I could do this being the 3rd (or 4th or even 5th) option on the offense this season, what could I do next season?   Especially there is a true pass first PG running the offense next year.

Maybe he wants to see what he can do as the man?  Maybe he wants to end his college career on a more positive note?

Guessing experts are telling him his future as of today is playing basketball in Europe.  That is where the best money is for a player like him.  Maybe he is thinking it might be prudent to avoid playing over there right now?  The uncertainty of COVID is bad enough but there could be a full scale war over there by basketball season next year.

There are lots of reasons for him to consider staying.
