Class of 2022 SG Chance Westry (PA / AZ Compass Prep) TRANSFERRING TO SYRACUSE (4/17/23)

[SUbear]

He also identified Westry and Cruz. (not to mention Carey, Goodine, Joseph etc.) I know they are young, but they haven't shown much so far.

Interesting but none of those were plan A, all were recruited after failing to get others he thought were better. Failing to land his most sought recruits was his big problem in later years.

Well, I stand corrected.

I didn't expect Red to want to deal with an intrusive stage parent.

Due diligence if nothing else. It's nice to Syracuse involved regardless.

 

[Trueblue25]

Haven’t heard anything about this, but thought he’d already had his chance. We’ll see

I like it...westry has too much upside to just sit on the sidelines when we already had a established relationship with him. Doesn't hurt to see if he's still got interest. I like the staff being more active then a body that's 6ft underground at the very least.

This staff is going to be involved with everyone

Everyone deserves a second Chance

The complete opposite of how it used to be

This is more layered. Some situations are more trouble than they're worth.

But if the coaching staff elects to get back involved, have to trust that they know what they're getting into.

Would rather have Moore given the choice between the two. If we can land both, that certainly reduces any potential risk with Westry.

I don't fully believe that we are involved/interested.

There was a tweet from 247 saying Syracuse reached out

FWIW, I just confirmed with a source that Syracuse has reached out to Westry.

Been wanting to get your take on the whole AW and syracuse thing...Have you talked to him recently? He doing ok?

I talked to him yesterday ... at length I wish I could say more on the forum but I can't - for now. But as soon as I can, trust me, you all will know first...but he's good!!!

Good to hear and glad you are still talking to him. I know we have other boosters/NIL guys who are a little bit more behind the scenes but AW was truly helping and would love to see him + Red in full action. I know he loves this program so I hope it all cones full circle

But what’s your source’s source?

As they should. We need an influx of new talent. Things may have ended in a weird spot but Syracuse and Westry are both in a different position now. Westry may have been more of a headache than the previous boss wanted to handle and the new boss being the former lead recruiter for Westry might be more than willing to handle the perceived headache from before.

No harm in reaching out and exploring. Doesn't mean we are going to take him and doesn't mean he wants to come here. But recruiting is all about relationships and reaching out is respectful and a way to maintain relationships.

I would think if the request was to tone it down some this would be one of the places. I have appreciated all that you have shared. I also appreciate the ability to control some of the output at times. Both are sometimes needed.

 

[HOFCeluck]

But what’s your source’s source?

Hopefully not the same ones as Dan Dakich

 

[Trueblue25]

Westry imo could be another MCW if he heals up well and puts the work in

 

[tee1222]

Raise your hand if you "un-ignored" this thread today.
Also and for fun, raise your hand if you believe you will ignore this thread again

 

[Cusefan0307]

Feels like this is something we would get heavily involved in if we thought Mintz was leaving. If he stays I don't see it happening with JJ in the fold.

But what’s your source’s source?

I can't get more into that, but my source is in the know. I'll leave it at that
