A couple of things Jesse wanted to stay the thought on the board is because he got twice the money. The narrative in the press is more about SU not being able or willing to play in the grey with a foreign NIL situation. Regardless he is gone, and he is a loss. How big of one remains to be seen. Jesse isn't what I would call Charmin soft, but I wouldn't want him in a fox hole with me either. His game is solid but does his game translate to what red wants to run on O and D? I personally think that we will be fine without him maybe not as good in some areas but possibly better in others.
As to his fit at WVU it doesn't seem like a great one. Maybe the drinking Bear has other thoughts, but he just seems out of place there. Again, time will tell. The good news is that with Joe and Jesse gone so with it goes the JB era. The remaining guys are more Red than JB and the positive is that year one for Red will truly be his team. Best of luck to Jesse hope he doesn't end up forgetting how to read and write and eat with utensils.
