The kid played for 4 years at Syracuse got to start every game but 2 games his freshman year. Got to play 33 mpg over 4 years. Got to take whatever shot he wanted without consequence. Now used his 5th year to experience another program and we as fans are to feel bad for him?
The kid wasn’t recruited to be a 4 year starter. His HC completely shoe horned him into being a PG for 3 years because he wanted to play him 33mpg. Their is stupid in any fanbase that is large and passionate. Joe didn’t take any abuse that was over the line or crazy. Fans were upset at the program’s results not his results.
His HC gaslighted the fanbase for his entire career and was beyond passive aggressive. Joe didn’t say anything crazy. I honestly don’t care about him other than the jokes about his weight on a message board which were clearly in jest were funny. The kid played hard and wasn’t why we lost it was his HC.
Also he took advantage of the NiL and got the Dunkin Donuts NIL deal. He made Mario’s pizza a meme.
If I were going to the game I would send a pizza to the Clemson bench with his name on it.
The kid isn’t the enemy and if he is bitter towards Syracuse then I would tell him F off and understand he wouldn’t have gotten the minutes he got at Syracuse at any other P5 school in college hoops.
Jim Boeheim is responsible for any bitterness this kid may have to Syracuse and that narrative gets buried because the media can’t burn JB and the other board circles the wagons for JB.

Jim Boeheim is responsible for any bitterness this kid may have to Syracuse and that narrative gets buried because the media can’t burn JB and the other board circles the wagons for JB. There was some video I saw on twitter via CitrusTV that was pretty brutal to Joe. I admit I laughed...but I could see how he could feel like he was pretty hated watch that. To me: I hated his complete lack of defense and when he would stare at the ball on the floor or sulk after dribbling off his foot or when he couldn't beat pressure, BUT on days he could shoot (which was streakier than people like to remember), he was a great microwave type player and I'm not shocked to see him doing well at Clemson at all. In fact, I'd say better than I thought. His D by all metrics is still HORRIBLE. Worse than JJ. Looking back...it was def more JB's fault. He treated him with kid gloves and would shit on other guys and it pissed me off. Joe wasn't a PG and some of the jock sniffers that drink with Joe's relatives couldn't understand how someone could dare disagree with that. So there's that too. End of the day: He was a main player for 4 years on Cuse teams. 3 of them didn't make the tourney, 1 was the only sub 500 team in JB's history, and the 1 tourney team, he was the 3rd best guard on the team....as he should have been all along.

You’re all overlooking a very important factor. Joe not having a vice grip on 38 mpg FORCED him to move away from his beloved free boxes of Mario and Salvos.
You can do a lot of things to a man that can be forgiven, but NEVER seperate a fat man from devouring entire boxes of post game pizza.
Joe’s fury and desire for revenge is understandable when you think about it that way.
