Ben is back as well officially.

I’m rooting for Ben. I think last year was hard for him. I’m also cautiously optimistic that he can take a jump next year. Think the game will slow down for him a bit and there should be less pressure on him in a smaller role. I could very easily see him excelling in a Luke Goode type role. 6-8 ppg on 40% 3pt shooting in 20ish minutes a game. We could have spent a lot more $$ and done a lot worse than Ben for an off the bench shooter role.

We have more guys whose name ends in c than any team in college hoops history.

There is a fix to defense and lack of athleticism. It's called a real DC who can game plan around what team lacks and game plan around what they can do well. That guys just isn't on the bench

What our remaining $$$ we are working with do you think best case scenario?

Depends who we can get …

Lot easier to go to a donor and say hey, I need some help financially and I can get for example Will Riley … He’s ready to commit … I just need your help …

Donor sees tape of said player …

Donor sees superstar …

Donor sees winning …

Donor sees potential march success …

Donor hands over 💰

I don’t want Indy to @ me but I think Ben coming back is a really positive thing. Shows good faith and relations with the staff. Continuity of returning players. Veteran. Someone we know CAN get hot.

Control his minutes and I see it as a big plus.

Hoping for the big year 2 jump now that is more used to the level of competition
