Message: [QUOTE="M2MPrinciples, post: 4524697, member: 928"] I'd respond to that by saying if someone who's earned playing time sits behind someone who hasn't for long enough, you risk that player bolting. And Benny is 1.5 years into his career. He's obviously not a finished product but he's played 60% of available minutes this year and got chances early last year before it became clear that he wasn't ready. And I don't mind JB continuing to roll with Benny, to be clear. Fortunately, we know pretty early in any given game he starts whether he'll be a positive or not. And next up are two games where we'll be favored, against Notre Dame and Georgia Tech (sandwiched between a game at Miami), so maybe he can string a couple good outings together and calm some of this debate. But the downside to staying with him for too long is worth considering too. [/QUOTE]
