Message: [QUOTE="Zelda Zonk, post: 4081332, member: 966"] Weren’t the pre-season Benny reviews of the ‘glowing’ sort? I thought there were genuine, objective arguments for him starting over Jimmy, from alum players and practice observers. So, were those accounts just wildly wrong, or did Benny really just seize up, and **** the bed when the lights came on? A few games ago, I thought it might just be mental—because he wasn’t hitting shots and that can easily just be a brain thing. But later, he just seems to be ill-prepared in all facets of the game. I think that if he has the character to stick it out, learn, and develop, he has potential to turn it around, even this season. But, I wonder who we are seeing. And how much of what was liked about him in those early reports may have been related to him practicing against us—our not so good defense, and our zone—and in games he’s going with less confidence against m2m Ds that smell blood.
