Healthy scratch against Gonzaga. What’d he do now? If he’s still being a headcase, I’m ready to move on. I saw an insider (I forget who) on the other board suggest that he may not wear Orange again? And Autry wouldn’t comment during the post game press conference. Not good. Yeah, I saw Autry’s no comment. Makes me wonder if the only reason Benny was on the bench is because he has no way home until that team flight leaves.

Never understood why so many people think this kid is so great. This is the fourth or fifth incident since he’s been here. At some point you are what your actions say you are. Just boot him.

I wonder if his toxic attitude and personality has infected the team as a whole and made them all more selfish

Benny Williams has made Terrance Roberts look like Derrick Coleman.
Possibly the most disappointing SU recruit of all time.

I was told last night by someone who’s in Hawaii that Benny was discovered at the hotel bar by Griff on Monday night after curfew after the rest of the team was already in their rooms. There also may have been some sort of argument between the two.

There also may have been some sort of argument between the two. Smh. Coming off a suspension and blatantly breaking a team rule/expectation like that is extra bad. If he had never once had an issue in his time in the program and did that - it would still be dumb and wrong, but not a huge deal IMO. But my goodness, 9:30 AM game and you’re in the bar breaking curfew when you JUST got back off suspension? Absolutely moronic and frankly, completely disrespectful of your coaches and team. If I was Red, I’d want to kick his ass.

Consider Paul Harris. He was said to have had issues here. Missing practice, bolting for Niagara Falls and Hop having to drive out there and bring him back.
But he was averaging 14 and 8. He produced. And he still was encouraged to move on after his 3rd year - a year where he was a productive starter on a sweet 16 team.
Benny has had maybe 5 productive games in his whole career.
His name and game holds zero weight compared to Paul Harris, and Paul Harris still got the boot. Benny’s gotta go IMO. And frankly I don’t see the point of keeping him around this season, unless he truly is apologetic and scared straight.
I’d strongly consider making sure he gets back to Syracuse safely tomorrow, and telling him to head home and stay home once the first semester is over.
At some point, it’s not working out and he’s not worth the trouble. Maybe Towson State or something will be interested.

At this point, I think it’s clear that JB wasn’t to blame for Benny Williams. The situation was supposed to be different with Red and it’s arguably worse.
Something to keep in mind when talking about Woody Newton and Kadary Richmond.
