Jim Boeheim sounds off on Walker Kessler transfer

Posted Apr 1, 2021
Syracuse coach Jim Boeheim said he didn't understand why former 5-star Walker Kessler would transfer from North Carolina, calling it "wounded pride." Taking to Yahoo Sports' Pete Thamel, Boeheim said that Kessler would have starred for the Tar Heels next season. “He’s going to get the ball 25 times a game there. It’s just wounded pride. That’s crazy.” (247 Sports)
