Message: [QUOTE="Eric15, post: 3753809, member: 676"] A month ago I posted "I think it's in the best interest of both SU and Jesse for him to be "nudged out" next year." Based on how he's performed over the past couple games I think that was too strong of a statement by me. He should be part of the regular rotation from here on out. That being said, I'm not diving into Jessepalozza 2K21 quite yet (sorry). He seems like a wonderful kid and he plays hard, but I still have concerns about his lack of athleticism. He doesn't have the quickness and strength that you would generally want in an ACC big man. But, it's not 2011, it's 2021, and the talent bar at SU is lower than it used to be. There have been many times when players showed flashes of being ready but it was an aberration, like Howard Washington. I will be rooting very hard for that not to be the case with Jesse. Jesse's success is SU's success. We desperately need a functional big man the next couple years and I hope it's him. [/QUOTE]
