Anybody else looking forward to him getting rickrolled in the Big East next year? Notre Dame has lost 7 in a row.

Between Ben and Digger Phelps constant pimping of a mediocre program, I hope they miss the Dance the next three years.

It turned out to be a good thing that he left, as Phil would not be around if he hadnt
But still, it wasn't really his choice.. Hans dad was in control of that situation and in no way was he going to let him stay.
Ben will be a "good" player in that system there, but he was never destined to be a great player as his dad believes he should be.

My greatest memory of Ben will be sitting behind the players bench at the USC game last season, and Ben getting fouled shooting a 3 with 1.1 secs left in the game.
and he and rick exchanged "words of motivation" before calmly draining all 3 to send the game into overtime.

Don't forget that the complete trash crowd was chanting " shadow, shadow, shadow"

With that said, I hope he breaks his $@$%+!* ankle first play of next season.

I may never understand this reason for him leaving. How on earth does someone who is 20 let his father make such a choice for him? It just blows my mind how someone who can vote, serve, and almost drink(legally) yet Daddy tells him where he can and cant get a paid for education and play basketball?

Just a mind blow.

in the tornado game last year. He was "on" Riley all night. His "defense" was really bad against Georgia the next night as well...
