Nobody could possibly judge Benny's improvement just from that scrimmage.

Benny is going to be fine offensively. He's not going to be a guy who initiates offense.  He wasn't even that in high school where he was a blue chip recuit.  He is going to be a guy that knocks down the looks the guards get for him.  In the scrimmage he wasnt even playing on the same team as either of the guards who will be doing most of that work.

Even last year Williams would have been a double digit scorer if he played regular minutes. He didn't because he was one of the worst defenders I've ever seen in a Syracuse uniform. What we need to learn is if he figured out things on D, and if he is better suited to man to man than he was to zone.

That scrimmage was not the place we will get answers to those questions.

Feel free to be hopeful or skeptical (I tend to be hopeful because I think 5 star recruits tend to eventually figure it out), but I wouldn't worry about anything that happens in this scrimmage or the next.
