media.tenor.com/nhMdbkK_b6AAAAAM/mattingly-coach.gifRed told Benny your gone. Don’t blame him. Benny needs help though hopefully he finishes his degree and SU helps him. We want him to have a Chance to grow up and mature. 21 year old kids aren’t the same when they become 30. Hopefully he gets support.

Red did the right thing. Benny has serious emotional issues. Damn shame.

Good Riddance. The kid got about 6 chances. Probably should have happened after Maui if we are being honest.

We heard so much on the other board about how it was Boeheim’s fault and the kid really didn’t get along with JB.
Guess that one wasn’t all JB’s fault.

I still think he could rebound better than Jimmy But I think at the end of the day, Benny doesnt like basketball and once it wasn't easy for him anymore, he checked out. Also, I think if more SyracuseFans knew that Benny trashed the locker room before the season after fighting with Maliq, SyracuseFans would understand better the decision today.

Finally never forget when reading these poster previews of incoming frosh: "The best skill he (Benny) brings to the table is his jump shot. Its as smooth as any I've seen, and he makes shots at as high a percentage as I've ever seen a high school kid make." "Barring injury, he's going to be playing in the NBA the minute he puts on about 20 more pounds of muscle. The only questions are, is he going to be a good NBA player or a mediocre NBA player, and how long is it going to take him to get there?" syracusefan.com/threads/the-new-guys.160913/

Looking forward our forwards next year should be Brown and the 5 star freshman. With Bell of the bench if he stays and a transfer forward

As a side note I wish I got the same leeway 3 years ago when I was 21 as Benny did. Guy gets paid 6 figures to play BB in College, not to mention the free ride to Cuse and is treated like a toddler who can’t control himself

I remember I wasn’t high on Benny before he started because everyone thought he was going to be a big thing. Boeheim had broken me by the time Benny was starting his freshman year. Benny’s freshman year we should have given him the minutes to develop but he wasn’t ready his freshman year and coach’s other son had to play. So because we were all in during the 2021-2022 season we played Jimmy because Benny wasn’t ready.
I don’t blame Jim Boeheim for this guy’s attitude but I never believed in Benny before he started because I had no confidence in the program after Kadary left.
It sucks Benny busted out but he was given ample chances and honestly after the story we all know from Hawaii he was allowed to stay.
