Desko made the remarks in response to a question asked during his weekly media Zoom session Wednesday.
“As far as I’m concerned that decision’s already been made and that’s what I want to do,” Desko said. “If it’s up to me, I’m coming back.”
Desko said the school’s administration has not indicated to him any desire to make a change.

A little over two weeks ago, Syracuse found itself in a must-win situation to avoid going under .500 with a two-game Atlantic Coast Conference road trip coming up. The Orange’s leading goal-scorer, Chase Scanlan, had just been suspended, and their defense was ravaged with injuries to starter Nick DiPietro and vital short-sticks Dami Oladunmoye and Brandon Aviles.
