I think the key point is, "was" a fit before.He was a fit before he wanted to leave was kind of my point. Nobody was going to ask Jesse to leave the team before he explored NIL opportunities. In fact everyone on this board was waiting on pins and needles to see if he would stay
I don't think he's a fit anymore for several reasons, and not just his play on the court. He made a decision (not gonna even put it on his dad, he's a grown ass man) and the team responded by bringing in others, as a result it's not the same team and certain conversations and commitments have happened.
What message would it send to the recruits who came on board because of Jesse's decision, their potential minutes, opportunities etc.? They wanted to be here and they are here. Who want's to play with a player who's only there because his first option fell through? Can't be good for team bonding IMO.
