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

[Carduccib]

Let’s not jump to conclusions. We now have a very deep connection with Moore officially on staff.

If Moore enters the portal, I would put good odds on him coming to SU.

Why do Hoyas all of sudden think they have Moore and Bronny waiting in the wings? Did they forget nobody cares about Georgetown anymore

 

[Sherman20]

If the family reached out to SU, it would seem that they have a fairly good chance of getting a commitment. Certainly a lot more probable than Moore who will be one of the most sought after transfers in the portal.

If Moore enters the portal, I imagine he’ll know exactly where he’s going.

 

[cuseallday]

Gosh, that would be a big mistake if you think a 6‘7” - 6’8” poor rebounder (1.9 rbs/game) can be our center. He is no Jeremy O’Neal. Syracuse needs to stay far away from Kamari Lands.

It was sarcasm

 

[jdubs30]

Bell coming back makes this interesting too. If we are aggressive with Westry to me that signals that Taylor is gone

Yeah, there's a reason rumors are leaking. He's probably setting it up now, and if he finds something he likes, he'll portal and go. If he doesn't he'll stay and say they were just rumors. JJ did the same.

Moore is staying at 'nova. Will Westry be the guard to pair with JJ? Maybe other names will pop up.

 

[walsh2012]

chance is big enough to run G/ in a 3 G lineup with JJ and Judah right?

He’s like 6’6” so yes theoretically.

 

[Orangezoo]

Dropping this here too.

You can see the vision of him being very good this season and beyond. I am in.

[Trueblue25]

Kids a pro. Get it done

He would bring experience in how to beat Colgate.

 

[Buddah69]

Bet slick ric gets him

 

[cuseallday]

Appreciate you sharing, buddy!

I wouldn’t be surprised if auburn through a bag at him to keep him around

He probably just doesn’t want to be around that fat, scumbag, snitch Bruce Pearl anymore

 

[rrlbees]

Regarding our possible 3 guard offense, two years ago 247 considered him a SF.

Correct. At 6-foot-6, no reason why he couldn't play on the wing as a SF, similar to Justin Taylor or Chris Bell (Bell I believe is 6-foot-7)...

If Westry is so good why did he have a difficult time cracking the Auburn rotation before he was injured?

Westry was hurt in preseason and had a procedure done on his knee. They attempted to get him back but Pearl admitted he wasn’t 100% and they elected to shut him down after a few games. Can’t find the article now, but he also admitted Westry was one of the best guards during summer workouts prior to the injury and expected him to have a big role on the team. He was also a pretty good performer on their international tour over the summer, although those are normally not great indicators as the competition is pretty shaky.

Two returning starters in the backcourt and I heard national guys talk about senior Flanigan's ceiling on the wing? Can't pretend to have watched Auburn play much in the non-con.

247 has as a top 30 or so transfer still. I think there is better options but I would be in on it.

I will say I am being a little hypocritical because if this was 12 months ago I would be annoyed that it seems like we are only talking to kids we recruited before. Thinking that changes in the next couple of weeks with Straughn in the fold, though. I am excited.

Maybe. Taylor, Copeland, and Bell showed more than Westry and some of our fans want them to transfer. I think there’s a lot of people still looking at last years recruiting rankings.

Some of our fans are stupid

If you watch the videos posted in his thread, looks much more like a guard than a forward.
