Message: [QUOTE="Dick_in_MI, post: 4624323, member: 225"] Jesse is a smart kid in a demanding major. I could see him wanting to get his degree. When he first came to Syracuse, he said that he wanted to be a doctor. Seems like the type of man who is already thinking of his life beyond basketball, however far basketball takes him. I could see him wanting to maximize his draft chances by coming back. As for representing The Netherlands internationally, he can do that regardless of whether he comes back or not. Also, regarding wanting to play in the NCAA tournament, it is nice and all, but I wouldn't see that as being a factor at all in his decision to return. Frankly, I'm surprised that he hasn't declared for the draft, if for no other reason to be evaluated while keeping the door open to return to SU. [/QUOTE]
